no, last i checked. Go with KVR all around if you're keeping the calipers stock.

Eibach Pro-Kit, Koni Struts, and Enkei RS5's with BFG-KDWs (215/45-ZR17) BAER 13" big brake kit+rear baer rotors all zinc washed, cross-drilled and slotted (Greenstuff binding rears) Kenwood head unit with Infinity reference speakers+1 8" Bazooka Tube fed by two MTX Blue Thunder amps. Hella Stage II HIDS from hids4less.com. Recaro Sport Seats trimmed in supple black leather. And Zymol wax to keep it squeaky clean.

Did some more research and I answered my own question. EBC makes the Sport Groove front rotors, but I have not found the EBC part number yet. I found them on BAT and TireRack. My next question is about Brembo now. It seems that Brembo makes rotors also? But, the Mystique is not listed in their application guide. Anyone know for sure and have a part number for Brembo?

I purchased the 4 rotors & pads special from bat couple of weeks ago for my 97 LX, and I could swear that the front rotors were from EBC. I've already installed them and tossed out the boxes.

I called BAT about their kit, and the little EBC and AP Lockheed logos. The kit uses the full-face EBC rotors all around, unless stock is low, and then they use the AP Lockheed. Or they mix and match as required.
Both of these companies are, I gather, respected in Europe as quality mfr's. AP Lockheed is now Delphi Lockheed. EBC does not normally sell their "standard" rotors in the US--only the "Turbo Groove," which is available for the fronts of our cars.
Anyway, I've been looking for quality full-face rotors, and now that BAT has put a name with the face of their "Premium Brake Kit," I have to seriously consider it, especially at a price of $185 (non-SVT)!

Terry, Do you have both the Turbo and the plain EBC's for front and rear? Can you attest to the quality of these pieces? Thanks, Roger

I can attest to their motorcycle parts. I use them on mine (2 of them) and they are great.
Just call me Judge. People suck. Life begins at 170mph...until that point it is just boring.....

Terry, What does the full package cost? 4 rotors and full pads, maybe SS lines? I still run stock brakes, and want to upgrade, but not have to sell children to do it. TIA.
