6MT Brakes and Rotors

I have had squeaky brakes since 2006 when I installed the Hawk ceramic pads on my car. Now, my brakes seem to be squeaking because my brakes and rotors are completely shot. Can anyone recommend a solid pad and rotor combination that will fit the Brembo calipers? Are any of the combo packs sold on ebay any good? Thanks.

Hello fellow Columbuser. I will be kind and give you answers. Next time though, search brother! I think this has been covered multiple times this week alone on here.

People like the Brakemotive deal...

Or Josh's AZ brake deals... Stoptech

Or Marcus's brake deals... RacingBrake

I love my RB setup. The Motul/SS lines really do make a difference.

I haven't had to replace rotors but I can vouch for the autozone cmax gold. They're quite popular among many TL owners. It's rare to find a good part at a discount auto parts store for enthusiests, but this pad works great. Low dust, good stopping power, good longevity.

We sure can recommend a solid setup.

These Acurazine brake packages are designed to improve braking performance and durability at a reasonable price. The packages include Powerslot/STOPTECH performance rotors and STOPTECH Performance pads. All of the rotors have a black e-coating on the hubs and vanes and an advanced alloy composition. The Powerslot slotted rotors for the front of most Acuras also have a Power Alloy composition and a curved vane construction, which helps reduce heat in the brake system. The STOPTECH Performance pads are a para-aramid compound, which has great initial bite and long-term performance and lower dust and noise than most aftermarket brake pads.

The Racingbrake rotors that come in our HTSpec kits are far and away they absolute best rotors you can buy as OEM replacements for these cars. They will last at least 2-3 times longer than conventional rotors, and in many cases we see cars going through multiple sets of pads without so much as a glance at the rotors.

I specifically find this kit is pretty popular:

^And that's the exact kit I bought! Love it!

The rotors are almost a work of art.

Edit: I got your back too man. Same discount is expected. :P
