Brake rotor upgrade

[Night Train]

I found this link to slotted, drilled and slotted/drilled rotors. Prices seem very inexpensive compared to others. They should dissipate heat better. Would this be much of an improvement in stopping power?

Bad link

This link takes you to the site, but not the rotors.

I searched the site for rotors for a Buick Grand National. They listed the Grand National, but said they had no brake parts at all available for that car.

What did you search under? There are parts for regular Regals there. Just not GN's.

RE: not listing brake parts specifically for GN's-

Now doubt since our cars are 16 years old now, it will be less likely that the GN will be specifcally called out in on-line pull down menus. To the best of my knowledge, there is no difference between Regal and GN brake components.

Rotors

There is no difference in rotors (or calipers, or pads) between the GN and the slower Regals. They all had bad brakes, it just seemed more normal on the slower cars. The slotted rotors will look better, but won't give any significant stopping improvement.
