the best brakes are obviously Brembo, no question about it.

offtopic: the new volvo ?s80? "evolve package" has DUAL SIX PISTON BREMBO CALIPERS on each tire. that's fricken 48 calipers on the entire car!!!

if you shop at walmart, the larger filter is the ST 3950, which is the same as the fram 3950.

i use it instead of the 3593A and it works beautifully.

Question Rotors Wanted

I too would like to buy a set of rotors to replace the front ones. However i've been looking for them and cannot find decent quality rotors the are not factory rotors only drilled. I would like to get a set of crosdrilled rotors for a decent price...

I found this site:
http://discbrakesrus.com/make/acura/tlpremium.htm
I haven't called them to see if they are originaly made or Factory Drilled...

For brake pads, I would recommend Endless.

Good choice and ad the Amsoil to go with it: 0-30 weight and their filter.
