Does anybody know of any reputable companies that make a big brake kit. i looked at Brembo but dont want to fork 3000 doallars for a brake kit. or if there arent many options would anybody suggest drilled or sloted rotors. any waht are the advantages and disadvantages.

Check with Stoptech and Zimmerman for brakes. I think ECS has a kit, too.

I would go with the OEM or slotted. I have heard that the cross drilled rotors will wear out faster and can crack around the holes. Positives...They will cool faster, look better. Also, the slotted rotors will wear out your pads faster.
