Would this be considered an upgrade over the stock brakes that seem to overheat and "warp" easily? Anybody used these?

They were definately an upgrade from my OEM's that probably had close to 120k miles on them. I used these on my 2003 and so far so good. Everything went together very easily. This rotor and pad combo seem to have more "bite" then OEM. My original rotors were very "warped" I replaced all 4 rotors and pads and bled the system. With about 15k miles on this kit, I have not experienced any problems, no squeaks,rattles or warping. This rotor and pad combo is hard to beat for the price for a set of 4. Only complaint is that there is no coating on the rotor where it meets the hub. It develops surface rust in a matter of days. Its just surface rust and wont hurt anything. If you spend more money you can get rotors with e-coating but I am not sure if it's worth the extra cost, they eventually start to rust as well.

Went to the Rock site and lots of parts but could not find pads/rotors offered as a kit.

Rock Auto,

What is the 2-letter FSMI code on these brake pads?

For that matter, why is this information not listed across all brake pads?

 

[RockAuto]

Hello HangFire,

I will get in touch with PowerStop for the FSMI info.

Most manufacturers actually do not publish the FSMI info in their data.

Thanks, yes I noticed that. However it's almost always printed on the pad itself, the internal shrinkwrap, or the box.

@jamesgarner83 After a year or so, how are these holding up?

@RockAuto Any specials or discounts these days?

New here... and sorry to dig up a two month old thread... but I was looking at one of the brake kits: POWER STOP K5370 Z23 Evolution Sport that some have mentioned. As I looked at the individual items and priced it out; Im curious as to why it is slightly more than adding the pads and rotors separately. Is there anything additional that comes with the kit?

We may be getting the individual components from a location that offers them more cheaply than the location selling the kit. You should be able to click on the Info button of the kit to see exactly what is included.
