    Don't use drilled rotors unless u like to regularly check them for cracks....its not worth it on a dd...unless ur talking carbon, which id assume is stronger and less prone to cracks and a carbon/carbon carbon/ceramic is an expensive beast and they can take extreme heat and only get better the more u cook them I think....not something a tacoma needs, leave drilled carbons to the supercars.

    Racers may use drilled, but they may also tear parts down after every race....also sponsorships would help them cover costs.

    Those wilwood calipers are nice....... slamming on the brakes with just a simple pad/rotor (even solid) can make a surprising difference.

    Better than stock initial bite.

    I'm a big fan of Hawk Racing stuff. I use their pads in my 964, they work great. I've been eyeing a set of slotted rotors they make for Tacomas. Most likely will go that route when it's time to upgrade my braking system.

    I have had the brembo rotors and hawk lts pads for close to a year with no complaints . Good , fade free performance with no "warping". The hawk pads produce more dust.
