Race Concepts. Call Ben at 714-894-3581 or you can e-mail him at sales@raceconcepts.net

Here's a thread about his products:

Several testimonials can be found in the thread as well.

Thumbs up Btw...

...back in March I got a complete set of slotted rotors, PBR semi-metallic pads & brake fluid from Ben. Couldn't be happier with the results!

They're typically OE style replacement parts sold at parts stores. I haven't heard anything bad about them, but when my car needed new brakes I just used it as an excuse to do an upgrade!

The total ran me $287 shipped to my door!

Cool

i got front drilled/slotted rotors and kevlar semi-metallic pads off ebay for a grand total of i believe 105 for the rotors and 40 for the pads including shipping. they work great and car stops on a dime. after they bed in (which took about 500-1000 miles) and you stomp on the brakes you'll be like
