Brake discs STOPTECH or OEM Honda
Since enrolling in the daily death-race a year ago, I've: Replaced the Serp. Belt and idler, adjusted the valves, changed CVT oil and its filter a couple times, swapped O2 and Mass airflow sensors, replaced front brake rotors and pads, upgraded headlamps and added an Acura switched light for the rear so I can turn it off and leave the hatch open. I've got the set of drums and pads for the back waiting for a good day - that should fix whatever caused the parking brake to seize until I stopped setting it last winter.
Pros: easy repairs, good performance
Cons: parking brake seized
Vehicle:
Honda Fit
Mileage: 180000 km
I have Stop Tech slotted rotors on the front, still new in box for the rear. Same thing with stainless braided lines.
Pros: new in box
Vehicle:
Audi A3
I’m getting slotted stop tech rotors for my 09 Corolla XRS. Gonna hit some back roads, I’m a very aggressive driver and and very hard on my breaks, also want to do hard backroad driving, so I will benefit from the slotted rotors.
Pros: benefit from slotted rotors
Vehicle:
Toyota Corolla
Buy Honda ones from the Honda dealership
Pros: recommended
Went with stop tech two piece slotted rotors and EBC yellow pads when I got my 2015 DSG a few years ago. No complaints but there are better pads out there than EBC. First 3-5k miles the yellows squeaked at a 6/10 level probably.
Pros: no complaints, good rotors
Cons: pads squeak initially
Mileage: 3000 km
For fun daily driving, I’ve got stainless steel brake lines, stoptech rotors (slotted in front) and Carbotech pads that I absolutely love. Highly recommended!
Pros: highly recommended, love them
It depends on the brand. I got some stop tech rotors from Amazon no issues
Pros: no issues
I got Stoptech slotted and drilled rotors for like $250, and their carbon ceramic middle pads for like $150 front and rear. They are awesome.
Pros: awesome performance
At ~4,000 miles, I bought a set of StopTech (front) drilled+slotted rotors (non-PP) for my GTI and kept my OEM brake pads. Everything was fine up until recently (~2,000 miles later). I now hear a high pitch "squealing" noise at very low speeds. This happens right when I'm about to come to a complete stop (1-3 mph).
Cons: high pitch squealing noise
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 4000 km
OEM rotors were badly warped within the first year and Honda refused to warranty because they were “still in spec”. Of all OEM Honda parts, I think their brake rotors are one of the worst quality I have experienced.
Cons: badly warped, worst quality
Vehicle:
Honda Odyssey
