From what I have just read around online for the past 20 minutes, the outside slots and drilled holes typically have no decision in which direction they get mounted. It is in fact the internal vanes that determine which way they go on.
So if the vanes are straight it doesn't matter. or rear rotors where there are no vanes at all.

Rotor direction is based on the internal fins not whatever bullshit is on the outside of the disc. The fins are a fan and they serve to draw air in the center back side of the rotor and flow it out the circumference.

FYI if they're not straight you want them sweeping toward the rear of the car. This way when the car is moving forward the air will flow the correct way.

a little teaser of whats to come for the interior...
i dropped these off with local upholsterer a year ago. i told him there was no rush and he is one of my sponsors so i paid nearly nothing. i bought the BRIDE fabric from Gary @ SAGE.
JDM S14 seats are looking hella fresh
