well i'm going to do the caliper swap and i'm getting new pads, i know about axxis, EBC, satisfied and all that, but no one has said anything about the AEM/nissin pads (nissin is the original JDM pad maker for honda) has anyone ever tired them they have some graphs on their site and , here are some of the specs, they are made of kevelar cermanic material, Key Features:
Guaranteed to outperform O.E. pads and fit perfectly every time. Work with O.E. brake systems and are ideal for AEM Big Rotor Brake Systems. Non-ferrous metal compound is non-corrosive, won't deteriorate brake components. Light colored dust does not show on wheels. Low squeal properties. here are some of the graphs they provide, i woudl like everyoines opinion, becaue i'm leaning twords these, i have had cars with the satisfied, and i don't want the axxis because of the dust, and from everyone i know ebc does not last long, anyway here they are:

am i reading that first graph wrong, why are the stopping distance increased, i would think they decrease

dont know anything about the pads though, sorry

civicking

try looking at it again, the blue line is the AEM pads at 218ft, the yellow line is the axxis at 240ft and the red line is oem pads at 287 ft how are they increasing?

skgarach

interesting...where are you looking to purchase them from and for how much?

thats what i get for crawling out of bed and going right to the computer-and i swear i looked at it 5 times right before i posted. maybe i should have drank less last night

Sonic One

I purchased them from streetbeatcustoms. I'm waiting on my rotoras so I'll let you all know once I get them on in a few weeks.

civicking

well i just ordered them too, so i guess we will be the only two people that have them.

skgarach

pls write a review when you guys get em. If you like em, i'm gonna end up gettin them too.

civicking

i will just like i will write one about the calipers.

I thought that they quit making them. I had them on my '92 vigor and a '99 TL. Works great. Minimal dusting and improved stopping distance over stock.

However, you will have to grind a little tab/nub on the back of the rear pads so it will fit into the brake cylinder. It lasted probably about 50K miles.

We switched to Akebono ProAct. I think a little better construction than AEM. Very quiet but the brake dust is a little bit darker. AEM is grayish while Akebono is pretty black.

please post a review because i need pads and i can get a set of these for cheep but not for long so hurry!!

thanks

civicking

well i'm doing fronts only. so that will not be a problem.

civicking
