I was told that they couldn't be resurfaced because they are cross drilled. I'm actually considering just buying stock or OEM replacements that use the standard rotor. The Skyline ones are way expensive. The cheapest thing I can find in the correct size is $300 for the pair. They function fine, but they do squeal, that's why I'm replacing them, it's not so good for street driving, getting looks for the wrong reasons. ;-) I'm removing Hawk HP+ pads, and putting in Hwak HPS' which are supposed to be quiter. I scuffed-sanded the rotors on both sides before bolting them back up. I'll have to report back on if that quites things down. The passenger side is missing a spring though that clips in after the pads, I believe it is supposed to help reduce squealing and may be the cause of all the noise. BTW, even with the better cooling the brakes still faded at a track event at Watkins Glen International, the rotors held up but still got too hot. I talked to others running stock brakes and the only thing they did different was run Hawk Blue race pads and a few had addittional brake duct work done. I'm still trying to determine what type of ducting to do, custom, or buy the stuff that is on '93 and newer...
