Question New here and got a few questions

I'm new here but have been on the ORC board for a while though. Anyways, I'm looking for some new brake rotors for my 90 pickup. I've found the NWOR rotors and the performance products rotors. I know that NWOR isn't exactly the best company in the world, but what are the problems with their rotors? I don't know anything about performance products though. If any one has or has tried these rotors and could give me some feedback that would be great.

Hello Oly,

Welcome to the forum. It's a great place.

I am interested in the same question since I have a warped rotor in the front that needs to be replaced.

Personally, I have had a great experience with NWOR. On the other hand, I had to order my Exhaust System from PP THREE Times before they sent me the right one. I think PP's prices are really high for most things. The only reason I bought the exhaust from them in the first place is because I could get it for 15% off. Serves me right for thinking I was gonna get a good deal when I had to put up with all that crap to get it...

Anyway, my point is, EVERY company has problems. It just depends on who you talk to when you contact them.

If you're gonna call NWOR, ask for Sergio. He's been really great. I am going to buy more stuff from them in the future.

Better yet, I'll just take a drive up there. My cousin lives in Bellingham and I live in Woodinville, it's around Seattle. That's good to here positive feedback of NWOR. I've found tons of useful stuff but all I've heard is bad reviews or problems with the company. If there is someone that has personally tried their rotors I'd like to know what you think.

I too have had really good luck with NWOR. I have found that after a few trips into their shop, they recognize me when I call and I get great service.

I am running their cross-drilled rotors on my Tacoma and love them. While you are at it, put in a set of their stainless brake lines and you won't believe at how much the combination improves your stopping power.
