Brakes...

[WhiteAccord]

Just wondering what would be upgrading my brake options are...

Using other cars (Links? what kind? possibly use upgraded brakes?)
Upgrading accord brakes (Lowest price link?)
Effective and reliable shorcuts?
DIY Links?

Thanks for looking....

Not many of use are pushing enough to justify big brake, cross drilled, slotted so the next big thing are performance brake pads. I have used AEM($65-80 Front) and Axxis/PBR Ultimate($65-75). AEM had more noise then my current PBR. Both are quite similar in performance which is better in stopping power over stock. Check ebay or Honda forums for better deals!

Best option would be a slotted rotor with either OEM pads or Hawk HP's..really no need for a big brake kit unless you really absolutely must have one if you don't the world will stop spinning kind of things..Axxis ultimate pads grip like a mofo but they have some of the worst dust I've ever seen on brake pads. I clean my front rims, drive for an hour or so and they're dusted again.

Really? The brakes on mine are great. I have 4 whl discs and use the oem metallic pads and they are probably the best brakes of any car I have owned. I can only remember one car I have driven that had better brakes and that was an old Porsche 911 my Dad used to own. Those brakes were amazing. I just have a 4 cyl, though. I just changed the fluid and the pedal is much firmer.

Upgrade to 11.1" rotors via Drift's write up on everything-honda.com

about 3 months ago i change my whole stock setup for rotoras slotted f/r, axiss ultimate, ealr's lines and motul fluid and overall the response of the brakes is much better, better pedal feeling...I would say dust is kind of medium high to high...but i think it's a good setup in terms of quality. I know some people that critize powerslot and aem. You just have to do some research.

How about Brembo guys?

Brembo is good..pricey and kind of overkill unless you autox or something similar a lot
