Nice Rotors, but I thought I'd introduce this, as I've followed this during my circuit and enduro racing days.

Well, as long as you know, and you were aware, good luck and GodSpeed. It seems as though that particular subject seems rather sensitive to you. There was no ill-intent here.

Yep, just some good blanks and some really good brake pads are all you need. Especially on these small, light-weight Hondas. I have Hawk pads all around. I think I paid around $100 for all new rotors and Hawk blues from Amazon. I tend to get things really cheap on there by paying attention or taking risks. I got ST suspensions coilovers for $415 shipped

I thought you just made the calipers work ha. I didn't pay attention to the rest of the suspension. My buddy has Cadillac calipers on his Suzuki Samurai but who knows if they even work knowing him...
