Brake pads Mintex or OEM Honda
Impressively even wear. Got every bit of life out of that set.
Pros: even wear, long life
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
In short: support your local motor factors, and buy Mintex brakes and pads. I've a 107 and the Mintex pads/brakes have been brilliant.
Pros: brilliant brakes, excellent pads
Brakes and rotors are kinda easy.
Pros: kinda easy
Vehicle:
Honda
Honestly the OEM pads are fantastic in this car, I’ve been told by the guy that runs the xgen autocross page that the oem ones are fine for most street and autocross applications.
Pros: fantastic, fine for autocross
The clutch is light, the brakes feel solid, and the manual steering has a good, confident feel. The engine doesn't lug even if you bring it down to around idle speed, provided you're in the right gear.
Pros: brakes feel solid, confident feel
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
Brake pads and rotors for the fit i prefer OEM since they last around 60,000km. I paid less than that including fluid changes at a shop in the Toronto area.
Pros: long lasting, OEM quality
Cons: pricey
Vehicle:
Honda Fit
Mileage: 60000 km
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
Pros: acceptable for daily use, not terrible dust
Vehicle:
Honda Prelude
The brakes were so-so, and it had lots of torque steer, and benefited greatly from an aftermarket and much stiffer rear ARB, which improved its turn in and corner habits tremendously.
Pros: improved turn in, corner habits
Cons: so-so brakes, torque steer
Vehicle:
Honda Prelude
Not to sound mean, but Mintex redbox are terrible pads.
Cons: terrible pads
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Corrado
If there's a sore point on the Si, it's the brakes. It's that initial application is far too touchy, making smooth heel-and-toeing difficult especially when only light brake application is required. That abruptness proves annoying even in hard use, and the slightly spongy pedal feel doesn't help matters.
Cons: touchy, spongy pedal
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
