race concepts business
Did RaceConcepts go out of business? I ordered a set of rotors from them the other day and they said they would email my shipping information, no word yet, so I gave them a call and it is no longer in service. Anyone know if they went out of business?

Yes, they usually give us some kind of price break.
Let them know you are a member here.

Same situation kinda happened to me a couple months ago. Ordered them, and no word. Called them and for some reason they didn't have a shipping number, but they said they shipped. He just said call back in 2-3 days if I didnt get them (It totalling about 10 days at this point since I ordered them).
Well I didnt get them, so he sent out another pair, and this time all the shipping info was sent. I tracked them as the arrived in Portland...and got them the following day Great customer service by the way, he was very helpful.

What's the going rate these days on a sets of rotors for the SVX from these guys?
You go to ebay and there's like 5 different sellers doing SVX rotors in various slotted/drilled configurations, with wide ranges of prices. One seller is even named "RC Concepts" is that related to "Race Concepts"? Or some kind of knock-off?  Sounds like Race Concepts is still the pick by those in the know, eh? I've been running Race Concepts dimple drilled/slotted on all 4 corners for going on 5 years now, finally managed to warp the rears I think. Thinking of ordering some more. Or looking into some bigger brake options.

So they are working well for you? Are they slotted/drilled/both or is the cryo treating all they need?

They are slotted/plated as well as Cryo.
I have had to literally stand on my brakes a few times... no warpage, no uneven wear... Love em to death. Yes they were expensive, but the idea was to not have to buy rotors again. And they still exist.... http://www.appliedrotortechnology.com/

The guys over at Frozen Rotors (Diversified Cryogenic Laboratories Inc) are wonderful. They're based out of Minneapolis area, and I've been down to see them on more than one occasion.
They too are expensive, but well worth it. I have a set of PowerSlot Frozen rotors and Hawk HPS pads on my Forester XT. I warped two sets of factory rotors in one winter ice racing. These have held up like a champ. They don't seem to list a slotted rotor for the SVX, but I know they do custom orders for people (engine bits, etc...) so I'm sure they'd be willing to work with you. Again, great people. John there is one of the head instructors for the local BMW club's car control clinics, and their racing school.
