I think the Alcon set-up from Stage3 Motorsports has 14" front 13" rear drilled and slotted.

I've heard dimpled and slotted are better because the holes on the drilled and slotted have the tendency to crack

Sinister is correct. I run ebc dimpled and slotted on mine. Im using a cobra brake setup so its a different rotor than you need but they are great. No rust. The only complaint i have is that the slots are so wide that when you brake it almost sounds like a kids bike with cards hitting the spokes, just not as loud. You can hear it though

I am running hawk ceramic on my bullitt. Regular rotors. Stops great minimal squeak. I WILL definitely be getting dimpled and slotted. Also a good DIY brake cooler setup makes a little difference

Powerslot rotors are good, but slotted(which I recommend). If you don't mind spending some extra cash, go with the DBA rotors. As for pads, its really going to depend on if you can handle brake dust and squeeling. Hawk Ceramics are usually what I recommend to customers because you don't really NEED HP Plus pads unless you're going to be tracking the car. HP Plus have a lot of dust and they are LOUD. I'd say Powerslot rotors, Hawk Ceramics and call it a day.

I'm curious as well, not just rotors but a complete brake kit for 02/03 gt, both front and rear...lines, rotors, calipers,...the works? Don't mean to bud in on the thread, but interested in answers! Also why do they only sell the front kits? Why are (front & rear) kits not sold together, these kits are difficult to find? Is it good to just change the front only?
