 I used a mv6 omega on the track, solely, no road use at all, competing in both drifting and in a gt class racing series, using stock pads and discs for over 2 years, front and rear, also fitted with a hydraulic handbrake that worked on the rear calipers, and only ever put one set of front pads in it, in fact when i scrapped it the front struts went into my road car at the time, complete with pads and discs and lasted a good 4 months, never had any issue with fade or judder

Avoid drilled. Even with well known brands its not unheard of for the disks to crack , with the cracks starting in the drill holes.

Note that the disks you see on porsche and ferrari etc are not drilled but are made (cast or moulded depending on material) with holes in situ, so not the same as drilled disks.

Drilling weakens the material , standard disks from a dealer are perfect although may not meet the aesthetic requirement.

I personally wouldnt buy any brake components from ebay - you have no way of knowing what quality control has been applied and for something this critical its just not worth saving a few pounds imho
