Hey guys need some help. Im looking into getting some new brakes and dont know where to start looking. I dont want something too expensive but not too cheap. If you have any suggestions pleas do let me know, Thanks.

 

I'm going to be getting some also this summer. Check KVR Performance. There are places that sell EBC rotors also.

 

I'm very happy with my EBC set up. Can't go wrong with them. They use quality steel.

If you want OEM replacements just call around to some local auto parts stores for pricing. For rotors ask for AC Delco premiums, Raybestos, or Brembo blanks. For pads just make sure you you go with some good ceramics.

If you want performance, then it depends on how much you want to spend. Lots of possibilities.

 

This is turing into a Canadian thread. Where u guys from?

I heard really good things about KVR...and they do 50% off rotor sales sometimes, so i'm waiting for that.

 

Didn't woodbine acura use to carry KVR? Where are you getting them from now?

Oh, im down in london now btw.

 

There is something better than Ceramics

 

Do share!

 

Make sure you flush all 4 brake lines..
I just did it I used Castrol GTLMA and WOW what a difference in pedal feel!
I just posted a little DIY but i had a commpresser powered bleeder so it was pretty dam easy! Just make sure u do it in order DF wheel PF wheel PB wheel DBwheel, I used 2 bottles cost me $9, best $9 I spent in awile1

 

Yes but it's also more money. OP by the sound of it doesn't want to spend money.

 

For OE replacement, just got to your auto parts store and ask for their premium ceramic replacement pad.

There isn't going to be much of a difference in terms of performance for the over-the-counter stuff. They're all about the same.

Raybestos Advanced Technology ceramic pads and Raybestos Advanced Technology rotors have worked fine for me on other cars.

 

Get them right from the KVR site. Their in Ottawa but will ship.
I used to go to London every 3 months or so for work. might be done now though.

Stoned: Ya i've heard the best thing to do is to replace & flush the brake fluid, and then do your brakes. That's what i'm going to do. My pops manages a shop, so i'll get them to do it

 

Not at all........sometimes cheaper....

 

Thats still does not help anyone. What are these better than but cheaper than ceramics your talking about?

 

^ I'll start a thread......

 

If you are looking for a performance upgrade remember to check out ROTORA.

I just bought RackingBrake rotors. Someone at work has had them on his TL for a while and have been good. I ordered mine for $265 shipped. I plan on just using OEM pads. I have almost 90k on my front brakes right now and they are finally squeaking.

 

You can get the EBC rotors for under $200 a pair. Thats pretty cheap for a quality rotor.

Here is a great deal. I've used them on many cars and trucks, from racing to towing. Never once have I had a EBC rotor warp or crack. In fact the rotors have always outlasted the vehicle.

You can check there for the pads also. I've used all thier pads Green, Red, and Yellow. All are great.

Free shipping too!!!
