I was more than happy with my R1 Rotors at Sonoma 2 weeks ago. I felt a bit of pulsing when I got the brakes especially hot, but I never had any real fading.
Pros: happy with R1 Rotors
Cons: bit of pulsing
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
Got this kit from ECS Tuning: Front And Rear Brake Kit (340x30/300x12) Featuring Brembo rotors and Ceramic OE Equivalent Pad www.ecstuning.com You do not need to remove rear caliper bracket to remove rotor. FYI. I used ODB11 to unlock the rear and you will need a brake caliper tool to compress and turn them in. DO NOT JUST COMPRESS THEM. While you are in there. Clean up around your sway bar links and other bushings. I like lubing them up a little just because why not while you are there.
Pros: easy rotor removal, useful tip
Cons: requires specific tools
Why not go brembo 18z you’ll have to buy rotors anyways. Then you just need pads, lines and some hardware. No special brackets for the front. I did the swap on my mk6 golf and love it
Pros: love it
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Replaced with girodisc two piece rotors. They are great!
Pros: great performance
Vehicle:
Chevrolet
I swapped over from the oem Brembo pads and rotors to project mu pads and Stoptech rotors and it was a definitely worth the upgrade. I got the type PS pads they offer which has less dust than the oem pads, no noise and way better braking performance. Super easy to modulate and paired with 200tw tires your braking confidence goes through the roof and you can really late brake and trail brake easily.
Pros: better braking performance, easy modulate
Cons: more expensive
you can get some solid 1 piece DBA rotors for less, and they'll be phenomenal.
Pros: phenomenal performance, solid quality
Vehicle:
Subaru
DBA rotors with hawk pads
The prices for parts (especially the brakes and oil and sparkplugs) and fluids are on the high side. Looks like they are only using Porsche parts while there are some excellent and much cheaper alternatives out there. Especially for brake rotors and pads.
Pros: cheaper alternatives available
Cons: parts prices are high
Vehicle:
Porsche
Good idea but turns worst idea when buying Brembo parts. Brembo is the worst consumer brake parts company nowadays. Pro parts good but consumer parts shittiest shit. Disk warps first 100km or are already warped from box, pads dust like hell and destoroy rims.
Pros: Pro parts good
Cons: Disk warps, pads dust
Mileage: 100 km
