STi (replacement) brake rotors?
STi-Brake Rotors
I was looking at a few different sites for brakes and nobody seems to have replacement or upgrade rotors for the STi.
Does anyone know where I can get replacement rotors and what the price would be?
Thanks.

I haven't priced rotors before or replaced mine so, I honestly
couldn't tell you if it is a great price but,they told me that their prices
are pretty good compaired to other places.
I just remembered a nother place you can try.

DBA makes popular replacements. Here's one vendor's thread but there are others in the Vendor forum. No quality replacement rotors for the STi are inexpensive.

If you're looking at two-piece rotors with the anodized aluminum center hat, then yes, those are costly. The rotor piece can be replaced when worn or damaged and the center hat is re-useable. New fasteners are supplied by DBA with the replacement rotor pieces since the fasteners must be replaced with the rotor. Those 5000-series two-piece rotors are gorgeous. I would love to have those on my car. Too expensive for me.
You can always go with the one-piece rotors from various manufacturers, including DBA. That's what I have on my car. The STi replacements often cost more than the WRX because the rotor size is larger.

It's too bad they are that expensive.
