When I was at SEMA a couple weeks ago I was looking at some application guides and I saw the 09 TSX had the same front rotor as the 04-08 TSX. I'm waiting on a confirmation but I'm 99% sure that is what I saw. So good new the front rotors will be available and we'll check on the brake pad too.

Unless the hat is a different thickness then it should be the same, both are 11.8" in diameter correct?

I'm pretty sure the 2nd gen has larger rear rotors though. 11.1" compared to 10.2".

STOPTECH has advised me that everything is the same for the front and rear: rotors, pads, etc except of the front brake lines.

I replied to this on clubTSX.

Racingbrake has been talking with me about this too but we have not verified either. They are saying the rears are different though...we'd need a TL application I think they said.

That's what others are saying. The rear disc is almost 1" larger than the 1st gen according to the brochure. However the front disc appears to be the same but I'm waiting for a definite confirmation.

hey guys, I'm new to the car thing. What are rotors? =)

Rotors are what the brake caliper squeeze to slow the car down. It's the large round shiny piece behind your wheels.
