Post subject: 00 Integra Brake Upgrade Options
I just purchased a 2000 Integra GS Sedan and I'm looking into rotor and/or brake system upgrades. So far my only purchase has been a set of 17" Axis Mag Lites (Graphite) with Toyo Proxes 4 (205/40/17). Here's the thing...... I live in New England and I've always switched to 15" snow tires in the winter.
I've been looking at the following options.
1. OEM Sized rotor upgrades (Powerslot, Brembo, or Baer)
2. Big Rotor with caliper relocation (AEM or Baer)
3. Outright big brake kits (Brembo or Baer)
I guess I'm trying to see if anyone has installed the #2, relocating the caliper and if so, how hard is it to keep changing back every year so I can go back to 15" wheels in the snow? Also the kits.... Brembo's GT sells for around $1500-$2000. While the Baer Track kits sell for under $1000.
SUGGESTIONS FEEDBACK PLEASE!!

I've heard good things about the brembo's, although they are a bit pricey. I've never used them myself so don't take my word for it. I'm assuming you aren't going to try to mix and match baer rotors with brembo calipers or vice versa. I don't know about switching your brake setup every winter though.
I guess i'm just too lazy to do anything like that.

Post subject: Power Slot OEM replacement
What is your opinion on the Power Slot OEM direct replacement rotors? Although they dont look nearly as nice as 12-13" rotors, they will personally save me alot of money on snow tires.
Are they just better looking? Or do they functionally brake better?
