For what it's worth, no. Slotted rotors won't help a street rig at all. And you shouldn;t have solid rotors, you should have vented ones on it stock.

Just get some quality rotors, try Napa or Centric premiums. I'm betting you're getting the cheaper ones.

Make sure you bed in your pads evenly and don't hold at a stop at all when they are hot from bedding in. Also, if you're hard on brakes like hilly areas, don't sit with the brakes applied in gear at a stop light. Pop it into N and roll a bit. Most pulsation is uneven bed-in.
