need help from you guys on what i should do. I don't have the money to do both, so my mind is all confused. should i get into the group buy for the drilled/slotted rotors or should i buy a cat-back from SSAutoChrome on ebay here http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...&category=33630. Your advice would be greatly appreciated....

Catback.

Do you have aftermarket rims?

no to the rims...i'm planning on doing that for the summer. if i already had the rims, i would go w/ the rotors for the better look...
but since i don't have rims, should i go w/ cat-back. thats what i'm thinking, however the group buy is a great deal, and i'm pretty damn sure ssautochrome puts that product on ebay frequently. like i said, i'm leaning towards the cat-back, but i would like some input

go with the exhaust.. unless you race, the drilled rotors are just eyecandy.. and if you are running 14 inch steel rims with covers.. you will never see them.

Yeah, dude, the Catback. GO for it.

The rotors you will always be able to get also. They may be a bit more, but they are mostly candy and bragging rights.

well this is what i say.. if you know your going to want the rotors soon anyways.. then go with the group buy because the offer is only a limited time.. as for the catback.. get it after the rotors cause it does come up frequently on ebay..
i always go for the better deal at the time.. im a sucker for a good deal.. but unless you have plans to run a the track and would like to get your catback set up then by all means get that first...

for sure go with the cat-back, unless your car is due for new brakes anytime soon.

thats another thing. my rear rotors are starting to show rust. either one i decide won't be of much money to me, since it'll be for my bday. thanks for everyones input. seems like catback is the way to go?

Well, like I said, you CAN get the rotors on ebay still, and they won't be that much more. But if you get them with stockies on, you'll not really be doing anything for yourself.
