Whats a c3g? Maybe im just dumb.
I like the $ of that though.
Whats better up front,drilled OR slotted?
I notice massive brake fade when cruising country roads at 75-100 mph, my brakes almost seem to disappear when trying to stop my 18's.
Can i get bigger rotors up front without upgrading/swapping out calipers?

No u cannot up the size of your rotor without a bigger bracket and caliper.

Slotted and upgrade to the dual piston caliper with bracket from the GT eclipse model.

What in all did you do to your brakes and what kind of difference did it make?Im serious about doing this because ive come close to running out of road due to my poor brakes.I want to do this myself 3-4 out of 10 mechanic skills.

For drilled or slotted on your car it's all just a matter of opinion.

Neither stop better than the other, it just depends on what you like the looks of better. I personally like drilled better but like I said it's up to you.
