help.. brembo?

Hey guys
i've been researching on brembo brakes, but they're too expensive.
i have a 04 TL M/T. I need new rotors and brakes. If i want to go something other than brembo, whats the cheaper way with decent performance?

Rotora rotors maybe slotted. Look at Excelerate's web site, he is a vendor on acurizine.

The Brembos I assume you are researching are their BBK/GT kits.

Yes, those are extremely expensive, but I don't believe they have a kit setup for the '04-'08 TL. The ones on our cars shouldn't be anywhere near as pricey, at least, no more than the BBK available aftermarket.

cheapest an best replacement i have found for the TL w/ Brembos is at AUTOZONE

Duralast Gold CMAX Ceramic brake pads part # DCG1049 $64.99 will work great less dust than oem an since Acura sell oem brembo pads for $237 i find its much cheaper and they feel like they have same stopping power as oem once you break em in

ive never done my rotors just resurface them so i cant help with that
