Stillen Rotors = Warped

I think I caused it myself, but my nearly brand new Stillen's are complete junk... I'm gonna toss the stock rotors back on and verify that it's the rotors and not something more serious.... but I'm about 95% sure it's the front rotors, warped... DAMN IT!

Thinking of jumping right up to the SSBC brake setup...

I doubt it... at least not for warping... I'm gonna email them and see... I'm gonna swap the stock rotors back on tomorrow and be sure.

What is it doing exactly. The only way that anything to do with the caliper would cause the rotors to warp is if they are bound up and get the rotors really hot.
