Secondly like I give a fuck how many posts you have on an internet forum, seriously that is some form of self worth to you haha.

Thirdly, the brakes do fit the car, as was verified in the second or third post, the are the same model of pad as our. Its called interchangeability its a common term in the automotive world.
You mean Honda/Acura share some parts across models?

Will it blow your mind that NA1 NSX calipers are a direct bolt on for a '94-97 Honda Accord?

Would it amaze you that the Acura CL was pretty much an Accord coupe?

Or that the ILX and Civic are practically identical?

What are your credentials again?

FYI - you can put regular octane (87) gas in your TL and it won't blow up!

Think of the cost savings!

Just trying to give people cheaper alternatives.

Or that your car takes a 245/45/18 tire?

Maybe you did, but did you know you can use any tire brand that makes that tire size? You don't have to buy Michelin Pilot HX MXM4 tires!

Just trying to give people cheaper alternatives.

Call me old fashioned, but I prefer the Flintstones method and cut holes in the floorpan and use my feet to slow down.

Had the dude not been a complete douche-canoe about it I wouldn't have cared.

Insulting people for having a different opinion right out of the gate though? No thank you.

Way cheaper too. Plus it keeps the skin on your feet so incredibly soft. Win-win!

That's just some minor surface rust that happens when the car has been sitting. Just do some quick 0-100-0 sprints and it'll be good as new.

Muffintops,
Lol you were all proud of yourself because you had sooo many posts on this forum.....
and I didn't insult you for your opinion I stated accurately that you were uninformed and didn't do your homework when you implied the stoptech pads and raybestos rotors were of poor quality.

If you think your posts bother me you're wildly wrong, what I do think is that you're taking away from what could have been useful information to some.

I stand by my statements, every one, and laugh at the lack of knowledge some of you have and yet claim otherwise while you spew miss-information. (muffin tops)
Also Majofo you failed to improve anything in this thread and only contributed to the lack of quality in here, for someone who has a whopping 60k posts you sure are quite the fool, perhaps why you have soo much time on your hands to generate all those posts........

I fail to see why I would continue replying to this, there were some that seemed to find this interesting. Too bad a select few had to fill it with their miss informed opinions and childish responses, eat a dick y'all

Out.
