Currently I am testing a set of these out on our Project car since I roasted the stock ones from road racing. I'm using the NS version on the street now and planning to try a set of the Titain Kia on the track. So far I've noticed no squealing and way less brake dust. After having them on for a week and proper bedding of the pads I had to stand on them a few days ago to avoid a little old lady and they felt very firm.

Omicron, you gotta know by now that I'd give you a better deal. I don't see these going on sale anytime soon but give me a call anyway. I always take care of the forum members when I talk to them personally.

Omicron is right. You won't need to turn the rotors just for new pads. Unless of course, the rotors get damaged or are warped from abuse. If I haven't warped mine in the time I've had them on the track then I think you'll be OK.

The stock rotors should be turnable. I can't see why they wouldn't be able to be.
I had a Mazda 323 way back when and I turned the rotors when they warped only to have them warp again in a couple of months. I don't think I was especially abusive to the rotors either.

This is true to a point. Considering the size and thickness of the stock rotors of the 8, turning shouldn't be an issue. However, if the car has relitively thin rotors then turning will only last a while as in the case with your 323. If your on the track and the rotors become warped due to exessive heat then turning may only be a temporary solution. Also, turning the rotors usually isn't an issue when normal street driving with street pads.
