You own a 2002 Accord, assuming that 's the car requiring a rotor replacement, this is way too soon for turning, much less replacing a rotor. 
Are you the original owner of this vehicle? Do you replace your pads on schedule or when needed? If you are, then you need to change your driving habit, you break much too often and most likely majority of it is hard braking. :naughty:
On regular use, without abusive braking and following the regular brake pads replacement schedule, it’s very unusual for stock rotors not to last at least six years or more before requiring any turning/resurfacing.
Six years?! That sounds crazy in itself, unless you are talking about low miles during that time. I have 79k miles on my 2002, bought it new, and this is the 3rd or fourth time I replaced the pads. First 2 times were done by Just Brakes, last time by me but w/ Brembo rotors and Hawk HP+ pads. This was 3 months ago, March 18th. So this time I have OEM pads and AutoZone Aimco rotors (the only ones available @ the time). I can agree w/ the driving habit thing, and when I got the hawks I did have fun going up to stop signs and lights and stopping right @ the line.
Oh well, I guess i gotta pay for the habit.
I need examples of different setups people have, the braking performance and how long they typically last so I can get a better combination for my ride.
