Hey my fellow honda-tech heads, a lil while ago my integra started experiecing shaking while braking. Upon further research i believe it to be a) either my brakes going bad or b) my rotors are warped or c) Both. Where is the best/cheapest place to buy oem replacement parts or aftermarket parts. Thanks for your input.

 

my friends go to this place called http://www.groupbuycenter.com/ they are pretty cheap, you can try that out

 

ebay?

 

i bought mine here http://www.importrp.com

got the brembo calipers and the Goodridge SS lines.

 

Thanks guys for all your input. Any more suggestions? All replies are welcomed.

 

if the pads are really worn out, replace those first, then

if the rotors are not that bad, have them turned, this means shave off a thin layer to even it out - pepboys does this for $8 a rotor, NAPA for $12-15, - you can only do this once per rotor

if you already did that, get a set off of ebay - make sure its a name brand though, probably about $50-65 pair

 

"best/cheapest"

For daily driving, just get pads and rotors from Advance or Autozone - your car will stop and it will only cost you $20/rotor and $20 for the pads.

If you want OEM Acura parts online, I recommend http://www.acuraparts247.com

 

Bump

 

Rotors don't warp. They get heat spots and pad deposits on the rotor which causes the bumping effect that people assume is warpage. You can buy some race pads and equip them for a day and drive hard and easily wear off the heatspots.

Someone said you can only machine a rotor once, not true. You can machine it until they reach the Acura/Honda specified safe limit. Any shop that does brakes should have that info.

 

ebay has some slotted/crossed drilled rotors for cheap prices. Then you could get some hawk pads.

This place gets a from me too. Very good prices and great customer service.

 

Autozone blanks (ie no slotting or any of that crap) are what most of the Road Racers are using - and they'll heat up rotors more than you ever will on the street.

If no local Autozone, try http://www.cobaltfriction.com for their blanks - they're the same cheap price, and the product is good

 

Thanks guys. Any more suggestions? Night time Bump
