Brake Upgrade?
I deliver pizzas in my hatch, and when I had the b16 dropped in I also had integra front brakes installed. However, because of the frequent short trips, hard braking involved in stopping when I see the address for a house a little too late, and the limited braking power of the stock rear brakes, etc. my rotors are warping fairly quickly. I need to find some aftermarket brakes with exceptional braking power. I have 15" rota slipstreams, so wheel clearance shouldn't be an issue.
Anyone have any brand/model suggestions on what brakes I could pick up? And prices maybe? Thanks, Happy Thanksgiving.

You don't need bigger rear disc brakes. Ohter then the Teg front brakes, what else have you done to upgrade your braking? For exemple, bigger MC/BB, steel braided lines, Brembo blanks, good brake pads, etc?.

Nothing, that I know of. What should I start with, and where can I get it?

What do you mean that you know of? Did you buy the car like that already?

you could upgrade your pads to some autocross pads. also, when braking as you stated, it's not a good idea to engage the e brake when stopped. hot pads in one spot can warp a rotor pretty quickly. call andie at cobalt friction. the guy is very helpful.
oh god... are you serious? you want to upgrade your brakes because of your pizza delivery driving?
dude, just maintain the car better. if youre warping rotors, perhaps a tie rod or steering rack bushing is loose. you will achieve more than enough braking power to make a sudden stop on any street with stock setup.

I don't know because the guy who did my b16 swap also upgraded my brakes. I doubt I have a loose steering rack bushing, I've had a brand new steering rack installed recently.
