the point of cross drilled/slotted rotors are just for faster cooling. for daily driving use, you probably won't notice much of a difference. they do wear your pads out faster, however. i have a set of EBC cross drilled/slotted rotors and EBC greenstuff pads on mine, and i can stop on a dime.

I had crossdrilled rotors on the Protege. I couldnt tell any difference, and that included racing. Pads have much more influence.
