I have a 90 Accord EX, is there anyone who makes cross-drilled rotors for the stock wheel and tires? I want to stay with the stock look of the car but I can't find anyone who actually carries cross-drilled rotors for the stock tire size(15").

Thanks for the help!

 

why do you want cross-drilled rotors?

 

I put brand new Honda rotors on in Feb. when I put my h22 in and they are already warped I don't know if its because the engine is heavier and its putting more wear and tear on the brakes and rotors. A tuner shop that I know a few people at just recomended trying that.

Do you have any better suggestions?

 

put brembo blanks on, do not waste your money on cross drilled rotors

rotors just do not warp because you put a different and a little heavier engine in

did you install the rotors the first time?>

 

Don't get cross drilled rotors bro. Ive heard really bad stories of how they warp so quickly. Try some slotted ones. I have the power slot ones myself and they work so much better than my oem honda ones. And they don't warp as easily. And try to not to brake quickly and suddenly, thats probably the key factor of hot and cold that ruins your rotors.

The problem I'm having though is that I am planning on selling the car in a few months so I don't want to put a lot of money into it. I want to get a Civic SI and boost it as soon as I get it. Excited about boost.

So I want to save my money as much as I can but at the same time I drive a lot on the highway. Therefore I am constantly slowing down from fairly high speeds(65-75mph). I was told that with cross-drilled it would keep the rotors cooler and therefore they wouldn't wear as fast and would also have better braking.

As far as braking quickly and suddenly.. I go to the track a good bit so I can't always avoid it.

I don't know a lot about rotors and wear on them so thats why I'm asking you guys.

 

The saying is "You get what you pay for" brembo blanks shouldn't cost that much more than the oem ones. I bought my front pair of power slots for about $120. Which isnt too bad at all. You could use the cross drilled ones. But dont get the fake brembos that are silver in color. Those are the fake ones that were previously brembo blanks and redrilled and slotted by a second party. Those tend to warp real quicky. If you do get the cross drilled ones. Get the brembo "sports" rotors. They were made by brembo as cross drilled and slotted and are yellowish in color.

 

http://www.accordstore.com they have cheap crossdrilled rotors.

 

I use only Autozone blanks on my race car

I heat brakes faster and hotter than you can ever imagine

I have yet to warp a rotor

cross-drilled rotors are only really for looks, true cross-drilled rotors are cast with the holes in them instead of drilled and they are really exspensive
