Check these and give me some honest feed back. I have contacted the sellar to see how big the rotors are and to make sure they will fit my 98. MY BRAKES SUCK so I need new ones.

 

looks good to me

 

"This brake kit will fit the following application:

1996-2003 Acura CL"

I woudnt trust them. For one thing the 2nd gen's have a diff sized rotor, for another, theyre 5 lug. For ANOTHER, there is no 96 cl

 

That's what I just got, came in last week, this is what it looks like.



Good choice

 

Klep, they know, it's a typo. These are the same rotors that dustbuster had for a while. They know there's no 96, and they know about the 97's hub over design, look at my pic.

 

how much that cost u 97blackack?

 

alright, well as long as teh seller knows to send you the right kit. I wouldnt want you SOL with a 5 lug rotor

 

$450 shipped, probably a little more for you, since it would be shipped from cali, up to ontario.

 

No no, the 5 lug conversion adapter will be OVER the rotor

 

Following in alex's footsteps with the tripple post

Here is the info. Please note, they start at 97, then have seperate part #'s for 98-99. Trust me, I looked into all this b4 shellin out my $450

damn shipping is always a killer up here

a triple post you guys are post whoring like there's no 2morrow

 

bum.

That bk looks hot though. real nice.

 

damn $450?! i need to coat mine with some zinc to get rid of the rust over the hub

 

$450 included all 4 rotors, zinc plated. 4 axxis metal master brake pads, and a full set of stainless steel brake lines. Not bad for the whole set. If you bought them individually it'd be like $6-700

 

The same question for this one

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7988483476

 

I've NEVER seen you got something.

you always ask and never get it.

bodykits, lipkits, projectors, now brakes. what else more?

wow

 

I've ordered the lip nippon, thats why you ask so you can be sure and not by a body kit and end up you don't like it turn around and try and have to sell it and then get a lip kit. Also I'm still looking for the headlights all I want is someone to make them. Everything else I have ever wanted I've got oh well back to the subject which one of the above that I posted do you guys like?

 

but doesnt the drills in the rotors after a while crack?

 

They're both good kits, I looked at both. It's mostly preference, the second set is just slotted rotors, the IRotors are cross drilled and slotted. I think the second set comes with calipers, but i've already replaced my calipers, I just wanted cross drilled/slotted, pads, and ss brake lines. Whichever you think suits you better.

 

My IRotors brake kit, is finally being installed today, minus the brake lines for now. Now I just have to break them in properly

 

I got my rotors from iRotors off eBay.....they're reputable

you just have to specify the year & model at the end of the auction

 

yup that's what I was sayin. That's the kit I got, from IRotors, in the pic above.

 

Soo are you guys pleased with the Irotors kit?? (thats what I'll probably get.) Can you tell a big difference over the OEM rotors and pads?? (I mean are they worth gettin??)
Lastly, how about the Axxis pads they come with? I assume their not ceramic but are they good??

 

I'll let you know tommorow, they're being installed right now. And the axxis pads I believe are ceramic, they have very little metal in them. Can't get my car back till tommorow, dude's making me put my stock headlight bulbs, and amber corners back on, in order to pass inspection. So these'll be on till tommorow, when I take the car home and swap my nokya's and clears back on. Dude's charging me $290 for rotor and pad install. Not TOO bad, but still kinda pricey. But anyway, I'll let you know in the next day or 2 how the brakes are. But I've read reviews on here, and they're supposed to be pretty good. Perhaps jamz can shed more light on them?

 

Yea...the local Acura dealer wants ~$450 for all new OEM rotors and pads, so these would be better quality and for the same price. (i got quoted $175 for install)

Jamz - Soo are u pleased with them?? (I actually dont know what other brand/kind/kit I'd get for the same $$) Just making sure I'll like them before I buy them. So what do you think Jamz, you pleased and can u tell if their better quality/stopping power??

 

I think they definately stop better than my old OEM rotors & pads (which were worn & warped a little when I put the new ones on)


I got the pads from tirerack (OEM material): lots of brake dust.....could be caused by the drilled/slotted rotors. And lots of squeeking in the summer (but not winter)

I'd match them up with a better pad (than I got) and I think you'd be happy with them

my zinc plating is still holding up well and still don't show very much rust

 

That's good to know that the zinc plating holds up pretty well. I was a little concerned, due to the weather. I think that the axxis pads that come with the set are a good fit.

 

well crap. Now ive been doing some searching and reviewing and people say Irotors are crap and to get Brembo or Rotora (although I cant find either for sale...)

I dont know what to do.... (plus, Irotors wants $399 for their set...other members have gotten it cheaper)

 

Note, that set is not just the rotors, it's a whole kit, with the stainless steal brakelines as well.

 

Yea I know, which I guess if you add it up, SS braded lines and pads = about $200 so its about the right price...

errr...I guess I might just get them...and *hopefully* they dont break or warp.

Well shit....$438 for the IRotor kit , $75 Eibach Sportlines, $293 Kyb AGX , Camber Kit ~$150 , Install ~$200....

THIS SUCKS.... $1200 for all this shit...

 

i keep a running tab of all my mods for my car. I just added the costs of the exhaust install, ive spent close to $8,000 on my car in mods so far

 

Oh yea...me too...I just need new rotors and pads reaaallyy bad and I want to go ahead and get the other shit, just dont know where the $$'s going to come from..lol...(I have to keep inmind my CF hood was ~ $560 that I still have to pay when my Visa bill comes...

(I guess new $1500 rims are out of the question right now....as is the custom rear lip and painted skirts....shhhittt)

 

one step at a time my friend, one step at a time

 

You have PM

 

8 grand, does that count maintenance and repairs? Or just mods? if I added in my new axel, new calipers, and new tranny, I'd be WAY over the amount I paid for the car.

 

Just got the final price for my brake install, inspection, and spark plug install, and man, my butt hurts. The guy charged me $290 for the pad and rotor installation (pressed on 97) $65 for installing my iridiums, $35 for the inspection, plus a few other random costs. Next time, i'm going to get estimates, before I just show up to a new shop. I think the guy actually charged me more an hour in labor, because I provided all my own parts. :ghey:

 

nope, just mods maintenance and repairs are a diff story

heh, yea those front rotors are a bitch for the 97, i had to search around for a long ass time before I found a place that was cheap

 

Ouch...well now i might not get the Irotors package because "TampaBayCLS" is offering me a good deal on Brembo rotors and ceramic pads....(just no SS brake lines) Im just afarid to get the Irotors because I know they take the Brembo blanks and drill/slot them inhouse after they've been sealed and sent from Brembo.
The only downside to the Brembo's is that their "Zinc Yellow" gold color...
But, I can get them for $321 + shipping
The Irotors were $440 shipped to me....but they also came with SS lines..

Hummm...decisions decisions......I dont know what to do...
AND, if i go with the Brembos from TampaBayCLS, do I get the X drilled or the Slotted?

 

doubt it, i believe they're just slotted. I drove with my irotors on today, trying to bed them in, and man you can definately notice a difference.

 

Gotta keep spending......
