What do you all think?

hey all:
the rotors are vibrating again. nothing new to honda/acura brakes. I had enough.

was looking for a solution. here is where I am.

Front: racingbrakes 2 piece rotors +Hawk Hp pads
Rear: something better than stock but racing brakes do not make rears for our car (03 TL-S). Suggestions?

thanks

I thought Racing Brake started making the same rotors for the rear?

RB is retooling the molds for the rear rotors- some fitment issue on certain cars?

Soon as thats fixed- they will be listed online again
IN the meantime--- Stoptech rears are a good option- heeltoe carries them too

I suppose if you have the money and want to wait for 2 piece rears you can but its not necessary. The fronts are the real issue. Getting a quality rotor is whats needed

Thanks for the replies. Getting a quality rotor is EXACTLY what I am trying to do.
The 2 piece idea is a desperate one, it seems, to stop warpage, assuming I am careful about all other factors.

If I upgrade the fronts and leave teh rears stock , it may affect how the car brakes and handles...non? or you think one picee rb's front and stock rears is ok?

I guess i can get one piece rb's fronts and rears? how long of a wait is it for the 1-piece rears?
Thanks

Nope does not effect how it handles at all...rear brakes are only used a small percentage of the time when braking, while your front brakes do all the work. You can get some cheap OE replacements like Raybestos PG plus from partsamerica.com works fine for me
