Need help purchasing new rotors and brake pads.
hope that someone can help me with this.
I have a 1992 Honda Prelude RHD vtec 4ws BB1.
I wanted to see where can I buy brake pads and rotors in the US. Or is there brake pads from another car that i can buy that'll fit my car.
I took one of the front rotors off and I took it to the auto parts store. we tried matching it with every Prelude possible and they did not match.

Re: Need help purchasing new rotors and brake pads.
Did someone do a "big brake" upgrade from some other car? From my memory, there were people putting calipers and rotors from one of the Acuras, like a Legend or such on the fronts of Preludes. It may have used a caliper bracket from an S2000 if i remember right?
Can you get an actual measurement on the diameter, in mm, and we can see what that gives us.

Re: Need help purchasing new rotors and brake pads.
The stock ones, according to the specs from 2 websites that specializes in Japanese imports parts say,
front: 282mm =11.1"
rear:260mm =10.2"
I cant measure mines right now because they're on the car and the wheels are on.
when I did measure them, I did it with a regular measuring tape
they were a bit over 11.5"
Could've been human error on my part.
