This thread has been an eye opener. Thanks for all the info.
My questions:
1) what's the difference between 1 piece and 2 piece? Can you use a 1 piece instead of a 2 piece?
2) what's the difference between rotors/pads for a p30/p31 vs a non p30/p31?
I have a p30 and don't like prices I see for rotors/pads. Everyone here seems to be talking about rotors/pads for non p30/p31s. Could those rotors not be used for the p30/p31 packages?
Thanks

1) 1 piece is the rotor machined from the single piece of metal. 2 piece is basically 2 pieces connected together - center part is one piece and inside mounting part is a second piece. Yes you can use 1 piece instead of 2 piece. Sorry for poor explanation, just Google it

2) P30 have completely different pads and rotors (larger and thicker). P30 and non-P30 are NOT interchangeable. I am not aware of any aftermarket pads and rotors for P30 so your only option is OEM.
