Re: Drilled or Slotted?

Modern pads do not create gasses. Drilled rotors are useless on a street car and slotted are pretty well pointless too. Unless you're into the looks, solid rotors are as good as any and probably cheaper.

CVD is 100% correct. Steer clear of drilled because they love to crack, if you want something "fancy" go with slotted but do keep in mind your pads will wear slightly faster since the slots will be cutting/scraping into the pad surface. I also recomend getting some better pads for the front, I suggest Porterfield R4-S pads.

You might want to just look into getting the Baer Track-Kit brake system; you should be able to find it for about $600 and it includes 13" rotors, calipers, pads, hardware, etc...
