I just replaced the rotor on my integra gsr and getting the old one out i stripped the hell out of the stock set screw. So i went up to Ace hardware and matched it up with a black allen head screw. Well it fit perfectly and the car runs great but after the install i was looking at the service manual and it said something about not using certain types of metal for the set screw? Something about magnitic. Should i take the one i just put in out and order one from HONDA?

thanks

 

No its fine. I always junk the Phillips and put a bolt in with a touch of blue loc-tite.

 

Or just pick up a SS machine screw from the hardware store, the OEM machine screw is only about $1 from the dealer. 94

 

I have no problem paying for the oem screw. But will it be any better than the one i put in?

 

nope.

 

Ditto that. 94
