What'd you do to your accord today?

I believe they were stoptech. I ordered them I while back and just finally got around to installing them. I'll check my invoice and verify that when I get home. So far I'm happy with them. I posted a pic in my ride thread.

what slotted rotors do u guys recommend?

I requested a help from other members regarding my choices for slotted rotors. (my preference being OEM size>durability>quietness>look) Based on their suggestions, I decided to get Power Slot cryo-treated rotors with Centric Posi Quiet ceramic pads.
I'm happy with these b/c they're quiet & my rims don't get dusty at all. Also, there were no wearing noize, which is common on slotted rotors for the first couple hundred miles.

Removed my SRI, put my modified stock airbox back on (ridges inside cut off) and cut down the SRI pipe and added it to the bottom of the intake box. My custom 'OEM CAI' lol. Strict laws here in Australia.. rather not take the risk of being defected/yellow labled and fined..

Still sounds deep but crossover isn't as loud that's all.. I'm happy with it.

Might actually take the panel filter out of the box and just have a pod filter on the bottom tube instead.. No chance of hydrolock since its currently summer here in AU

I've had Rotora up front and Power Slot in the rear, was happy with both.

Alex, have you considered a Bypass valve? I assume you could mount it to the bottom of the intake box and the piping that comes out at the bottom of the bumper.

Bypass valve ? Throttle body bypass valve or something else? Lol


Edit: just googled it .. lol i understand what you're talking about now.

Air Bypass Valve for Cold Air Intakes
AEM’s patented Air Bypass Valve virtually eliminates the chance of hydro-lock in the event the filter of your AEM Cold Air induction system becomes submerged in water. On most systems, the valve installs along the upper portion of the inlet pipe and shuts down induction at the filter when it becomes submerged, rerouting air through its external diaphragm to keep water out and air flowing in. Check with your dealer or call AEM for more information on air bypass valve installation locations

Hmm I don't think I'm really worried about having that. I won't ever be driving through deep water, and i still have the splash guards so I don't think it'll be a problem.

i dont think hed need it. i dont have splash guards and i removed my resonator so water was able to get in the air box and get the filter damp.

i added pipe just like LeAccord did and it stays dry.

just my $.02

It would take a bit to get enough water up there, but sometimes it's better to be safe than sorry.
