been searching online lately
ebay mostly

whats a good price range to get?
there's a lot of varying ranges it seems like 50....200?

front + pads only
drilled or slotted?
there seems to be a alot of debate from other car forums in general about whether or not anyone needs drilled or slotted (or both)
cause apparently slots slice off the pads bit by bit
anye can help me answer this newb question?
sorry I'm new to cars

assuming you're referring to a MS3...

stock rotors are good for 80% of what you need and they're still the best price...check with Joe @ MOT.

as for pads, you'll get better value from aftermarket such as Hawk...chk with our sponsors...

nothing wrong with stock pads, i=and in fact they're greaty, from Ferodo, I heard...but cost a lot more...

There is a place in Windsor that has the stock rotors, $120/piece.

A place I deal with in the states that is strictly an import only auto parts store has Power Slot/power stops for $115us/piece.

For pads, ask Peter (SSG/ Supershyguy)..

Do we really need Hawk pads for daily drive?
I hear that Hawk wear out way faster than others.
