i'm probably getting mine thru mkteller (handle is something like that) who sells nopi prices. are you guys reusing your hub/wheel bearings? or replacing them? if you are, where are you getting the replacements?

but if ur gonna be replacing ur rotors, y not just get cross-drilled, and pay the extra money for them? thats wat i would do, but i got 4 rotors to replace on my accord, so...it'll cost a pretty penny.

no you didnt, but your suggestion was kinda just an on the fly your idea/opinion type thing and its actually false so when you post a suggestion that goes against all the posted FACT on the board and there have been countless topics about the AV6/legend brake upgrade and using blank rotors. i simply thought you had to be say that we were all flaming idiots for posting all this time about blank rotors when in fact slotted rotors are far far superior....

it depends on the application. pretty much any street driven accord will do just fine with blanks.

thanks for the info....then would wats the point of replacing the stock ones? cuz those r blanks. i mean, obviously, Brembo is doing something right, cuz there on lots of cars...do they not heat up as much as stock discs or wat? thanks for the info.

on that site rotors are listed 90-94 for accords and 95-97, why is this? is this the right classification?

The V6 accords were 95-97, maybe thats why? I know 94-97 4-cylinders were the same (except wagon), and think the 90-93 non-wagon accords had the same rotors? or at least they are interchangeable

i rate slotted and crossed drilled brakes on the same level of crap, the bigger brembo blank rotors that we use when doing the av6 brake swap provide you with a large pad to surface and overall rotor surface area available which gives you more stopping power, slotted/drilled rotors on a daily driver street car is a bad idea you give your self less pad to surface area and gunk and **** from the street will get up and lodge in the holes in the rotor

you said something about the stock brakes i think and we change over to the AV6 rotors/calipers because they are larger, the front accord brakes are simply to small in my opinion.

brembo blanks are just as good as OEM blank rotors and probably better and HELLA less expensive that why i used them in my swap i needed a blank AV6 rotor which is larger than the stock rotor i wanted a better quality that "auto zone" but no dealer prices i think brembo make excellent brake products.
