Default 87+ Rotor Options?

Are there any other options for rotors other than the usual stock or zimmerman crossed drilled units for 87+ offsets? This is for standard 951 brakes NOT M030.

I just put new rotors on my 87. I looked around for a while. I know ATE and Serbco had different rears for our cars as well as cryocool (sp?) but those were like 200+ per rotor.

I ended up with Zimmerman drilled (front) and Ate (rear)

I did the zimmerman coated solid rotors all round on my 87 non M030. I thought they were OK, is there something I'm missing?

Used to get ATE Powerslot rotors years ago, not sure if they are still available though...

Brembo makes discs also. How much do you want to spend, and what type disc do you want. 2 part discs are available but cost an arm and a leg.

I was kind of hoping for a 2-piece rotor if available. Or maybe a slotted rotor.

Zeff - were the cross drilled rotors you got left and right, or were they just the same rotor for either side?

2 piece rotors are on the order of $1000 to $1500 each. There is another thread talking about them now. But there are several manufacturers out there. One of the draw backs of 2 piece rotors are that they can be noisy.
