Has anybody heard of Yana Shiki??????

I was gonna get {complete set (front & rear) of Yana Shiki stainless steel wave rotors}
they are cheaper than Galfer and Braking and look just as good!?!?!

If they aren't EBC or Carbon Lorraine or Galfer I wouldn't touch them. A great price on ebay maybe. Look good maybe. But you know what you are getting with EBC et al.

Yana Shiki means 'loud as shit' in chinese according to a post i read somewhere else.

if they were japanese then I would say yes, but since they are chinese made..buy elsewhere as others have recommended
