ok supposedly cross drilled tends to cause cracking in the rotor, slotted eats pads up quicker, I just ordered a set of slotted/dimple drilled from raceconcepts.net tell them you heard about the special pricing (talk to a guy names WOOD) and its like 105 shipped from CA to Ilinois for the fronts and like 200 or so for all 4

here see here for my post about it http://www.2gnt.com/dcforum/DCForumID14/1791.html

I just put crossdrilled and slotted rotors on my car last week. (I can send you a pic) Supposedly the crossdrills have a higher chance of cracking b/c of less material integrity. The slots are supposed to help you stop faster. I don't know anything about them eating pads more, but that very well could be. If your worried about cracking go with dimples or just slots. I went with the crossdrills b/c I'm stick and don't brake heavy to begin with. So far I really enjoy them and they look awesome. I got a set of Brembo's for 250 for all 4. As far as pads - EBC greenstuff - a ton of guys on here will tell you that.

Im currently in conversations with wood over email about the rotors. Just wanted to know what was the longest lasting and most durable. I would hate to spend that money and few months have them crack on me

yeah get the raceconcepts, I just installed mine yesterday and they are awesome.

**note, make sure that when removing the old to get a bolt that fits in the 2 little threaded holes and tighten till the old rotor pops off, I was stupid and tried to hammer it off and took me 1 hour before I remembered about the threaded holes, even though I was staring at them the whole time, only took me 2 minuted to get the other side off after I remembered about the holes
