New Brakes/Rotors No Good ?

Hi, me again.

Just changed the brake pads and rotors (or discs) on my car today and the braking actually got worse !

I had a great stop with the old, rusty, scored rotors and pads, but now need an extra six inches to a foot to stop.

Any ideas why ?

I used OE - ATE brand pads and rotors, I can't figure what might be wrong. Do these things need time to work in ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
