Ok the Deal is , I have to replace the rear rotors and pads and the front rotors are slightly warped so I can have thoes machined (don't want to but I don't really want to spend the money on new rotors untill I have to).

-My questions are - Do I put on the factory designed rotors on the back, even if I know they are prone to warping. I am not getting acura to do this my mechanic is doing the work. I would assume they would be the same pads Acura would put on they are factory parts.

-Should I still spend a little more on the rear brakes to get aftermarket brakes even if the front are goint to be only machined

- What brand of brakes would be reccomended, I am not looking to spend 4 grand doing up my brakes so Brembo isn't an option right now.

Thanks everybody for reading hope you can help out with some of my questions - you usually do.

First off i dont think your mechanic will be using oem parts to do your brakes....second if your paying for the labor you might just want to change out the rotors now since you will have to do it later anyway ....why go thru the cost of paying for labor a second time and having the pads replaced again as well ....IMO.

I agree new rotors are not that much replace front and back. I got a great pair for 180 bucks and they are fine.

What Brand of Rotors,

And correct me if I'm wrong - but my Mechanic said he gets all his parts from GM. He said that GM makes factory parts for Toyota, Honda, and most import cars. I asked if it was ACDelco and he thought it was.

Would it be better to try these rotors or go for a different brand name.


And another question, would Acura get their parts from Honda to replace their parts with, or do you think it might be sub contracted to a company used by all of the manufacturers Like AC Delco or another one.

Thanks for the replies guys!
