i can't decide what to go with first...

this


or this


Mike's got that great deal going on right now, and i am not sure how much longer it will last on those calipers, and to be honest, some bad *** brakes like that aren't in my budget right now, but would make a :thumpup: upgrade to go along with all that power

 

Have you looked into the NSX brakes and rotors??

 

well, what do you need more? brakes or coilovers?
both are great upgrades... if you're not faster than 14.0 or so, go with TEIN's.

 

I'd go with the brakes...

 

teins, brakes are a waste of money

 

Oh come on you us want to decide between those two.
I'd go with the Spoons if you're getting the deal on them....... what is it $1090.00 That's pretty I think its better than brembos.

 

I 'd go with the brakes, the prelude already handles like it's on rails from the factory.

 

Really? I think stock suspension on all models pretty much suck... Brakes... Tein's are junk, just go w/ Koni/GC setup for handling...

 

Get the suspension. It will transform the car.

I can't see any point in upgrading the brake calipers (especially at a cost of $1000+). The stock brakes are more than adequate. If it makes you feel better, spray paint your stock calipers baby blue...

ya suspension all the way...and to guy about the nsx brakes, they're a great upgrade, except if anyone remember's from hp.com you can use the legend brakes which are the same w/out the nsx stamp and price

 

t e i n

 

the 5th gens already have pretty good handling, and pretty good brakes as well.

i am still debating between the two. i am thinking brakes will be a good idea though b/c i plan on rocking some big wheels, and some big wheels and ~300whp daily will make for a shitty stop distance at times

but then again, i live in the Mtns, there isn't a sinlge road around me (other than the interstate) that doesn't have some pretty nice curves to it. like i saidin a previous post, i DO have some cheap coilovors on some factory struts right now, with some good some strut braces, but then again, i've been riding around in my Teg with GCs and Illuminas for 8 months, so that could make for an interesting adjustment.......

but come to think of it, i've got performance brakes on the Teg too, so regardless, it's gonna take and adjustment of some sort...

get both and stop your bitching

 

i cant believe you are even considering spoon calipers.

 

 

Definitely go with the suspension. You'll be much happier.

 

Tein suspension for sure dude. Spoon calipers can wait. If you want better brakes, go for better rotors, and some high perf. pads.

 

And stainless lines

 

why do you say that?

 

yeah, i think i am just gonna wait on both of those, i can't really budget either one at the moment, but it would be nice to have. i think i am just going to get some slotted rotors and some good pads... anyone got some good suggestions???

 

im running kyb agx adjustables with ground control coilovers and they seem to ride pretty smooth..also have front cross drilled and slotted brembo rotors with stock honda brake pads...no brakedust and stops like a champ...i think you should get shocks and coil overs first , then brakes..
