I have a 1990 gsx non abs, which pads and rotors are best for a street car? When I was looking at ordering rotors there are abs and non abs, since I'm new I didn't understa.d the years. There were mitsubishi 6 1990-5-92 and 92-94 thanks guys.
 
I may have the years wrong ( i am sure some one will correct the years ) 1990-1992.5 AWD have single piston calipers and 1992.5 cars built after 5/92 may 92 AWD and up have dual piston calipers ... and yours is a non abs 1990 so single piston caliper ..most people switch to the dual piston calipers for a little better braking

You have the timeline right.

It's a huge difference between the original single piston caliper and rotor and the dual piston calipers with their larger rotors. The originals would warp rotors every 10k and fade with any high speed braking.

Stainless braided Teflon hoses also helps.

99% of the time you want plain rotors, not drilled or sloted.
