Rotors...a long-time sore spot with me. We bought the '95 ES w/34K on it, the rotors were warped but I knew this was likely going into hunting for one of these cars. Dallas, TX is hard on brakes.
I had 'em turned, they rewarped a few thousand miles later...I had 'em returned. We moved to the mountains of CO. They warped almost immediately, as you might expect. I put on a pair of cross-drilled discs...can't remembe who made them, but they weren't inexpensive. Within six months, not only were they warped, but they'd started cracking at the ventilation holes. I gave up on these, as I'm not about to risk a rotor cracking when, if you miss a curve, you're taking a guaranteed deadly trip down the side of a mountain.
I then found Shuck's, a.k.a. Checker and another store name, have 'lifetime guaranteed' rotors. They were inexpensive, they were on hand, so I went with it, asking the guy, "um, when these are too thin to turn in about a year, after they've warped a couple of times and been turned, you'll replace 'em, right?" He said, "sure will". Good deal.
Well, that was like 50K+ miles back, and there was a time, about four months in, when my wife drove the car like it was an F1 machine in the mountains, and I couldn't believe it, no warping. The brakes even felt better. I'd not replaced the pads at the same time as the rotors, I don't think, though they weren't OEM. The pads are nothing special, just decent OTC parts from the NAPA.
There was a period of time I intentionally was driving hard, lotsa late-braking in seriouslly twisty Colorado front-range roads, seeing if I could warp 'em, never happened. Honestly, I'm still amazed.
