Replacing warped rotor
I get some pulsating when I hit the front brake and I'm sure it's a warped rotor, so I'm looking to replace it soon. I had thoughts of improving my frint brakes at some point so my questions is, since I'll be swapping out the front rotor would this be a good time? And if so, any suggestions on what I could do to improve my front brakes? Would a certain type of rotor improve my front brakes? I'd prefer to spend as little as possible but I'm willing to listen to some more expensive options as well. Thanks!
Brembo brakes...

Yeah Joe, I saw that thread after I posted this one. I may PM Howard. And Vic, yeah, I'm sure it's the rotor. I was hoping for a less expensive solution but what the hell....I can't stand those front brakes. Thanks guys.

I would make certain that I knew why my rotor was warped before I bought a new one.
Check the brake pads to see if one is wearing more than the other. If it is, you need to
align the wheel to make sure your new rotor tracks true. If not and you install a new
rotor, you will just warp another one.
