I replaced all brake pads and rotors about a month ago on my 2014 Honda Civic EX with Brembo pads and rotors. So far they're working great, huge improvement over the warped front rotors and the warn pads before.
Reviews of spare parts for Honda
Motul Is the snizz. I put it in my Honda and every German car that comes in for service.
Aisin makes a great kit, used to be the oem supplier for Honda from what I’ve heard. Plus you can get them from rock auto.
Gates is the only aftermarket brand I'd trust; certainly don't go store-brand (autozone, etc).
Personally I would use an OEM kit from Honda but I’ve never heard anything bad about the Contitech kits.
I have Koni oranges paired up with Swift springs. Comfortable enough daily driving and sporty enough for the mountains.
Koni yellow with gc sleeves and springs ~50% stiffer than stock to balance ride comfort and handling. Drives like a rally car without the sway bars, drives like a sports car with them.
Seeing what looks like a Prelude wheel, why not just get the OEM honda brake pads? They are acceptable for most daily use, and the brake dust isn't to terrible to deal with
Mazda 6: Some randoms from the PO to Continental DWS. Huge improvement in road noise, which is good because I spent a while searching for the lowest road noise tires that would fit the odd stock tire size. Big traction improvement too, but that was not a surprise. No handling change otherwise.
S2000: BFG g-Force to Hankook Ventus V12 Evo2 - these were cheap and horrible, but lasted forever. The weak sidewall made the car squish all over the place in any maneuver reminiscent of a lane change. Very strange behavior from the steering wheel when the car would re-center itself.
I replaced my original alternator (which is also denso out of the factory) with a brand new denso alternator. Should be the exact same thing as the factory alt. It's not working at all. Battery is not staying charged. Had a complete diagnostic done by Honda and they said it is the alt. Kinda disappointed I waisted $700.
