Yep, what he said. As far as rotor pricing, it only just recently went up about $15 per rotor from a price that had not changed since the company started in '99 so theres not much to worry about there.

I have a friend who had endless slotted 1 piece rotor, he bought it almost $1000 that time, I told him "why did you buy that? It's too expensive for a 1 piece rotor. With that money you buy stoptech 2 piece rotor".

fast forward, he had an accident, tired slipped and his front left wheel got damaged too. Guess what? His Endless rotor was broken in two pieces. Our service manager told me that he had seen much worse accident than that and the brembo rotor never breaks but that Endless rotor just broke in 2 pieces and his brembo caliper isn't damaged at all.

Man that's quality and reliability for you.......

And with stoptech you have more choices of brake pads.

Stoptech FTW

I do a LOT of track events and decided on the Stoptech 355mm kit - looked at a lot of choices. Endless was not even in the running with the Brembo/Alcon/Stoptech choices. Now I REALLY need a rear kit. BTW Brembo owns AP racing...
