Default Time for brakes and rotors

So Im doing the full service to my 225, Im getting the timing belt combo with the metal propeller done for only 1095 parts and labor. Also I need new brakes and rotors but Im not really looking to go all out or big. I do want cross drilled rotors and good breaks though. Any suggestions on where I can getthem at a very good price or and recommendations? Thanks

I recently bought my rotors from this seller, there Zimmerman's and a pretty good price too, but make sure to email him and ask for them to be zinc coated http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Drill...spagenameZWDVWI got some GS6 pads from tirerack.com which are pretty good too, but if you want the best get Ferodo pads.

are you doing the job yourself?

I have a brand new rear caliper piston tool if you would like it, $30 shipped

For street driving I found slotted rotors to be a little too agressive on the pads, thats why I just choose drilled this time around.

You just like having to heat them up to temp in order to stop!
