Well I have a 5th gen accord ex 4cyc. Well i have had my oem rotors warped twice in the pass 2 years. So am looking for something that would give me better stopping power and wont warp like my oem rotors. Thanks

 

Brembo Rotors (Oem Blanks) (Standard)
Ceramic Brake Pads (stay away from semi-metalics)

I've run Brembo slotted Rotors without problems for two years. Avoid cross-drilled rotors (have a tendency to crack (Competition only)

P, who makes Honda motor oil?

 

I saw the movie. Turned it off, cause I couldn't understand them. I had no idea they were talking about oil. Dam! Maybe I'll catch it on reruns. Thanks P.

 

I truthfully can't tell you (but I'll try to find out for you)
I did have it on good authority the the crude which is used to manufacture Honda Lubricants actually comes form fossilized remains of Godzilla's distant cousins. Rumor has it that the refinery crew speaks perfect English, but there's this lag between the time their mouths move and when you hear it.

My God, you knew what I was going to say, before I said it! You're amazing; Man!

 

????????? I guess it's time to go to bed. I'm starting to hallucinate.

whats wrong with semi-metalics?</TD></TR></TABLE>

most of them will get make grooves as the pad wears down, they make noise, harder on rotor and their "bite" is very sensitive with temp.

i can't generalize everything because i can't tell you how exactly one brand will react compare to another band.

most pad maker have a less-headache chart to show comparison between their different line of pad.

for example:

organic street VS. ceramic VS. Metal

read and interpret all the spec before you pick the pad, for example, brake fade would be pority one if you doing track vs. organic street pad for oem replacement

pbr or axxis have a somewhat useful chart, also look up hawks

 

Hey P, did your Brembos get slotted by third party or by Brembo?

 

Brembo. Bought them thru the Tire Rack
Gold Cadmium Plated / Slotted

I was looking at cross-drilled, but Brembo's attitude towards them confirmed what I knew (no warranty for cracking). They offer all three types (Blank, Slotted and Cross-drilled) but will only offer a warranty on the Blanks and the Slotted versions.
