I say Brembo, but keep in mind that Brembo does not make any cross-drilled and slotted rotors. If it's got both, it's been modified and likely won't be covered under their warranty. This information comes direct from Brembo. I have a good friend here who got the shaft when his Brembos (actual Brembos) began to rust. When they machined them to drill the holes in them, the second party company messed up the anti-corrosive coating from the factory.
Just an FYI. Besides, slotted rotors are more structurally sound. They will wear your pads down sooner, but which is cheaper to replace, ya know?

I got the shaft a while back when I thought I had slotted cross-drilled brembo rotors and they began to crack at the cross-drills. There has been a Corvette that slammed into a wall at 70 mph while auto-crossing when his slotted crossdrilled "brembo" rotors cracked and got lodged in the brake caliper, locking up his wheel.
I vote geniune Brembo.

DR1665 is talking about me... My GSX cross drilled and slotted rotors started to rust a few months after i installed them. Now, my first set of the Brembo crossdrilled/slotted rotors that replaced my stockers never rusted. I had them on for a year and the guy i sold them too hasnt had a problem with them either.
