is there a right and wrong way to install slotted rotors? im talking about the direction of the slots.. cause i've seen some cars with it one way and other cars with it the other way.. or does it depend on the manufacturers specifications?

you have to put them on the right side...you cant choose yourself.

each rotor should have R and L stamped into it respectively. otherwise, it should be such that the normal rotation would go so that the grooves are pointing towards the back of the car... it's hard to explain... a pic is worth a thousand words:

what are some good slotted or cross drilled rotors that will be a good upgrade with my stock calipers.. i have 16" rotas so how big can i go in the front?

Fastbrakes upgrade is good bang for your buck, esp if you can get an NSX or ITR caliper (Accord wagon or Legend also works)

ya thats what i thought, i think ill just get some sir rotors, type-r civic rotors are 5 lug huh? cuz if some are 4 lug ill get type-r rotors, that would be bad azz

your calipers won't clear Si rotors... Type R is 5 lug, and the ones that are 4 lug are 4x114mm

if anything you gotta upgrade all of it like I did. I did all 99-00 SiR (Si for you) underpinnings and hydraulics.

that musta costed a pretty penny
