Default Looking For Brakes For 01 Accord.

Hey all,
looking for a front brake kit for my 01 accord ex (3.0 6cyl). Preferably Brembo or Wilwood, please provide me with a link I haven’t been able to find anything that’d work from what I know.

if you're new to the internet, Google is a good place to start when you're looking for something.

Big Brakes at Tire Rack

also, it might help if you mention your intended use and budget. an explanation for why what you've found so far doesn't work would be helpful too.

You're going to be hard pressed to find a big brake setup for under $500. Especially Brembo or Wilwood.


Your best budget option is going to be going with the RL 4-piston caliper upgrade. Its comprised of 3 components and is a bolt on affair.
05-12 Acura RL calipers ($250ish)
Fatfourcustoms RL conversion brackets ($150)
Nissan 350Z rotors (12.8" from the Brembo equipped models) ($120-200).

If your car is a 4-cylinder, and 4x114.3 lug pattern, you can simply get the center hat of the rotors drilled to 4x114.3. Or convert to 5 lug from the V6 cars, which makes it a bolt on upgrade.

I've had this brake upgrade since 2013, and for the price its a great setup. I've used it on both 4-lug and 5-lug setups on my Accord.
