Default Brake question...

If I want to upgrade my brake disc with ECS Slotted/Cross-Drilled Rotor, does the rotor fits the oem one, direct bolt on? And is it any better than oem brake rotor?? Do I need to change the brake pad as well??<ul><li><a href="http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/pagebuild_v2.cgi?make=Audi&amp;model=B6%20A4&amp;s ubmodel=Quattro&amp;engine=1.8T&amp;category=Braki ng">http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/pagebuild_v2.cgi?make=Audi&amp;model=B6%20A4&amp;s ubmodel

Default They are direct bolt on.

ATE makes the OEM ones for Audi. Make sure not to buy Zimmermans. They tend to warp easy. Most of the ones from ECS are Brembo.

You should get new brake pads if you buy new rotors. Mintex red box are good street pads. They don't give off much brake dust.

Hope this helps
