Default what do you guys think about ebay breaks?

i got a 91 hb si with a b16a and i need some way to stop better.my breaks really sucks and its time for a low buget upgrade. i'm getting my mc in another day. i changed out my rear shoes about a month ago now i got to get some pads and rotors(still not sure of what kind to get) for the front. i was wondering have any body ever got these or just spend the money on some other kinda of break pads?

Never heard of that brand. But you can get metal masters for cheaper, and EBC's for around the same price.

Kevlar pads sounds pretty cool, but to they provide enough friction?

My vote goes to EBC or Hawk.

you should stay away from EBC if you ask me... or if you ask just about anyone in the road racing/autocross forum (and those guys know brakes).

Just go with some Hawk HPS or HP+ pads. You won't be disappointed. Grab them from cobalt friction, who is a honda-tech sponsor.

35dollars plus 12dollar shipping $47 total

spend an extra 20dollars and you can get a decent street pad, ie hawk hp, hp+, axxis metal master, axxis ultimates(i have a set and love em)

http://www.cobaltfriction.com call them up, or email with questions and they'll find a great pad for you. Ask for Andie and tell them you are from honda-tech and he'll give you a great deal

as for rotors, autozone rotors are fine, I got 4 new rotors for less than 100

those ebay brakes are apex not to be confused with APEXi
