Don't take this the wrong way, but if you're that tight on money that you can't afford new rotors/pads, you probably shouldn't be looking to spend money on wheels. Considering that you track the car, you should be stashing money aside for the extra maintenance that will come with the extra abuse.

Well after i get this kit paid off (ordered the Z1 kit) then im going to save up about 1k and set it aside for repairs.

I'll end up needing to pay back my mom about $200 bucks.
