vs
Brake pads TRW or OEM Honda
I needed upgrades brakes (rear drums to discs), upgraded shocks with camber+caster adjustment, rear axle needed to be bent to give me more camber since GE8's don't have shimming like the GK or GD.
Pros: upgraded brakes, upgraded shocks
Vehicle:
Honda Fit

I’ve used trw and jurid pads with Zimmerman rotors and an R1 concepts kit, with their most aggressive pad compound. The TRW ceramic pads are fine, a bit noisy when cold in my experience. Jurid was the same. Zimmerman rotors warped on me in about 20k miles and the car was really only driven in the city so I, personally, wouldn’t pay the slight premium to get them.
Pros: good bite
Cons: noisy when cold, rotors warped

Issues included brakes dying (out of brake fluid, pero may tagas din yung hydrovac)
Cons: brakes dying, hydrovac leak
