Ah well, I did OEM rotors and Akebono pads last week and it seems good though I am surprised at the perceived decrease in initial bite. I've had a few times now where I've been concerned about them not working as expected but a little more pressure and they bite down better. I will try re-bedding them in the next couple of days and see how it goes.
I don't know if anyone has noticed, but Brembo now has OEM style 2 piece rotors. They have plain and the slotted/dimpled style for both the 340mm and 370mm rotors. Although I didn't see the plain 370mm on their website; but their website is t to good either. I found them for reasonable on Rockauto. They're supposed to be with all the major suppliers, but they don't appear to all have them yet. I just got a set of the plain 340 and haven't looked at them yet. I can take pictures later to verify them.
