Rotor choices:

AP Racing:

http://www.apexperformance.net/AP-Po...-30_p_702.html

Total $3,596 ($900/ea)

Girodisc:

Total: $3,200 ($800/ea)


#3 - RacingBrake:

Total: $2,340 ($585/ea)

This special bundle price is to prove to Porsche owners that not only cheaper rotors can save you money, but they can perform better and last longer than expensive options.

Just added ourselves as another option for your consideration.

You are comparing your "sale" prices to MSRP of the AP/Essex and their solution. Is this same Apples-to-Oranges comparison method typical for other aspects of your braking systems?

I tried RacingBrake rotors on my last car and had major vibration issues under hard braking that I could never get solved, and RacingBrake "support" just pointed me to online forums to look for help. Needless to say I got rid of the quickly and going back to stock rotors resolved my issues.

Thank you. That OE caliper BBK was co-developed with Mark from Daly Racing, after 10 years it still considered the most valuable (price and performance) brake upgrade among NSX owners.

Unlike general consumer products which a consumer may be able to judge the quality difference through their naked eye in the "Apple/Orange" comparison, fortunately there is a process specifically established in the casting industry (ASTM) and automotive industry (SAE) to evaluate the quality of a cast iron, with a microscope and conduct "micro-structure" analysis of a casting - A scientific and objective process to tell the difference in quality which RB casting stands.

As to price comparison I simply took those numbers from the links provided. You can add their true prices for others to see.

If you can supply your name and reference order number we can check our order history and validate your claim of dis-satisfaction and make necessary correction.
