if you're just warping rotors, then you're not allowing the rotors to cool properly. for instance, if you brake from 100-0, and keep the foot on the brakes (especially because if the car is an automatic), then the rotors are being cooled unevening when the car isn't moving. the part of the rotor touching the brake pads will cool at a different rate than the rest of the rotors exposed to just air. you end up glazing the rotor and leaving imprint/deposits of the pad.
Now I can honestly say that I have learned something today. Interesting.
I had heard that the V6 used slightly larger rotors but same calipers, rotors and thusly would be more efficient for high speed braking.
Gonna call summit here in a bit and see what they have to offer.
