Hey all,
I have an 02 se and pretty much everything is still stock, but my rotors are really warped and my brake pads are gettin worn, so I was wondering if anyone could recommend what type of rotors or what brands people have used and liked? And same thing for brake pads. Keep in mind I am a college student and work full-time, so money is somewhat of an issue and all, but any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

As far as rotors are concerned theres 2 choices that are widely considered the best. 1) Brembo blanks or 2) Powerslot rotors. The Hawk Hps brake pads seem to have excellent feed back- ill'e be ordering them very soon.

 

do research in this HUGE brake thread

brembo blanks and hawk hps pads...no need to research...just buy them and be happy

 

or...new OEM replacement rotors with HPS
the problem with stock brakes (warping, etc) isnt the rotors...its the pads

 

stoptech has some nice rotors .

 

if your a college student then do your own labor, that will save you tons of money.

 

yeah.. i say hawk hps and brembo.. but when you put them on, make sure you grease them up properly, because those things will squeal to high heaven

 

no grease here...no squeeling

 

Thanks for the good feedback. I am definitely going to be doing the labor myself.
