well after getting dicked around by brakelabs(because of course the rotors i have now are no longer available) guess what else isn’t available? the raybestos stock replacement rotors, i found probably the very last one(ordered and on the way), talked to raybestos, they basically said yea, there are none, there are no order for any, and there are no plans to make any, but good news! the part number is active…gee thanks

ended up spending hours to find a cross reference sheet with some china brand rotors i’ve never heard off, seems they are the ONLY stock replacement left, so those are on the way to me, lets hope they work or this car is going right into the lake

so to recap, i have one good rear drilled rotor, one bad rear drilled rotor, one good raybestos stock rotor on its way, and two china brand stock type rotors on the way, lets see if i can get two good rotors out of 4…

good news is i took the STI out and did some land-scraping activities over the weekend
