Talking need some advice

my 92 svx needs new front struts and im wondering what are the best ones for the money. i dont want to spend a whol lot of money but if there are some performance struts that arent than much more than stock or some other brand i would like to know. also where can i get good rotors and brake pads that wont worp. the ones that came with the car are slotted but i guess that didnt help them from worping. thanks in advance rivman

I have been using the same drilled and slotted rotors from STS for over 2 years now. You can find them in any Schucks/Checker/Kragen. They will most likely have to order them and for both front rotors I paid about $250. They are just now starting to warp slightly. I like these rotors alot, and they will take pretty much anything you can throw at them.

When I installed them, my car fell off the jackstand and landed on the rotor that was not mounted tight, and I have never had any problem with it.

I found my front ones(drilled/slotted) on ebay for $110 shipped. No problems with them for 2 years, But they recently started to stress crack at the drill holes. I'd say I got my worth out of them for 32K miles though.
