Yup time to get the brake pads replaced, get it done before it becomes rotors too.

I have to leave the caps lock on for work or the computer doesnt recognize my entries. Just the way they have the system setup I guess.

And if you're running your shitbox Civic in some LeMans race, yes, you should invest in rotors that are going to aid your braking over an extended period of time at the expense of pad life and comfort. If you're going to ride on the street, get Brembo blanks and Hawk pads and give the system a good bleed and you'll be **** for another 9 months at least
