Default Rotors

Are the rotors on a 92 civic dx hatchback vented or not? Im trying to buy rotors online and some places have both types. Which one is for me? Thanks.

According to Brembo's OEM Replacement Rotor Catalog, the 1992 non-SI Hatchback uses Brembo PN: 25507, a Vented Disc Rotor (240mm Diameter, 19mm Min. Thickness, 44.7mm Overall Height).

The 1992 SI had Solid Discs for the rear, so maybe they're listing this as an "available" part for "your vehicle", even though you probably have Drums in the Rear...

Hope this helps,

Just look on eBay for cross-drilled/slotted Brembo rotors. The front pair are roughly around $85-100 shipped. MAKE SURE YOU CHANGE OUT THE PADS TO SEMI-METALLIC units. Organic pads will mess up those rotors.

Yes, they are vented. All '88+ Hondas have vented front rotors and - if equipped with rear discs - solid rears.

BTW, I would suggest buying rotors locally - they are heavy and therefore expensive to ship.

The point was - buy locally, save money. If you're paying over $25 apiece for rotors, you're wasting money.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

BTW, leave the vented/cross drilled/slotted **** alone too.
