I had stoptech rotors and within a year they started shaking like crazy. Which may have been deposits from the pads I had. (Also stoptech). Unfortunately since they were slotted I couldnt have them resurfaced so I went back to stock. On a side note I love those headlights, any info on them or other pics?

You can machine slotted rotors just need to find a shop that will do it, it requires taking shallower cuts w/ more passes.
If you want a rotor for bling, the slotted stoptechs are decent, but basic Centric Premium rotors for a good blank. Centric is the parent company for Stoptech and the slotted Stoptechs are basically Centric premiums.

+1 on the Centric premium rotors I've been wishing mine would die so I could replace them with 2 piece rotors for a couple of years now...even with NDX race pads year round and track days they haven't given up or shown signs of stress

Z1 2 piece slotted only all around. I track and drive spiritedly. Daily them year round on Nismo pads and track on Hawks DTCs.
For blanks, I just look for something that has been treated and made by a reputable mfg, i.e. centric, stoptech, akebono, etc.

I have DBA Drilled/Slotted rotors with Hawk HPS 5.0 pads. After one year of moderately spirited driving and heavy stop-and-go traffic, the setup still performs flawlessly. No brake "judder," very little dusting, and overall a much improved feel in stopping power.
Granted this setup is overkill for a car that gets driven 1-2x a month and will never see a track, but at the outset they look good, outperform stock (IMO), and will definitely stop the car on a dime.
Just my input...

Z1 2pc. Even if you're not utilizing the greater heat dissipation, you will feel the weight savings (rotational, unsprung mass).
Other than that, just get the blanks/slotted/drilled/whatever listed above.
