Reviews of STOPTECH brake discs

I recently did my brakes 2 weeks ago and very happy with how they came out. StopTech Centric Cryo rotors F & R, Hawk HPS 5.0 Street pads, 034 stainless brake lines.

I've used StopTech rotors in 3 cars so far (95 Camaro Z28, 06 Volvo V70R and 05 Corvette) and simply ordered the OEM equivalent and all worked fine. The Camaro worked better than OEM, the V70R worked about the same (OEM brakes were Bremebo so they were already pretty good) and the Corvette was also about the same (car already had excellent stopping capability.)

I went the other way - I've had scary brake fade a number of times on VW/Audis on the track in the past, and I wanted the "once and done" option when I picked up my Golf R earlier this year. So, worked with Achtuning to install a Stoptech ST60 355mm setup on the front, with stoptech rotors, pads, and SS lines all around. Pro Absolutely bulletproof on HPDEs. You simply don't worry about brake temps or soft pedals, you get 100% braking all day long.

I ended up getting a kit from urotuning, stop tech cross drilled rotors and stop tech pads. I am very happy with the performance, the cross drilling seems to take care of the poor braking whith the stock rotors in wet conditions. The initial bite is a little less agressive than stock, maybe a different pad would give that back.

Front rotors are Stoptech slotted with Hawk HT10 pads ~90% life. Rear rotors and pads are OEM quality with ~75% life.

My experience with my 2015 - non-PP - is that the pads are about the worst that I have ever experienced. Material transfer on the front rotors was a constant problem...this stopping from 75 mph at the bottom of a long highway ramp...the pulsating changed in sync with how hot the day was and how hard I was using the brakes...I do not drive this car hard. I replaced everything.

Since I installed the StopTech slotted brake rotors on my 2013 Golf R last winter, every time I've driven in the rain, after cruising long enough such that the brakes get "cold," as soon as I mash on the brake pedal, there is no stopping power whatsoever. Once the brakes "heat up" the response and stopping power are as what I'd expect. On a dry day, this does not happen at all - the brakes are firm and the stopping response is exactly what I'd expect.

The rotors have come in I usually go with EBC but I had to cut their slotted rotors twice cuz of pulsation, stoptech has been good so far.

I installed Stoptech Brake Rotors and EBC Red Stuff pads together with SS brake lines. It really stops well now.

Just installed stoptech slotted rotors f/r along with hawk hps 5.0, so far so good, quiet linear pedal response, not over boasted like stock, much less dust.
