How about some StopTech in your life then. They don't make it for the accords though. Guess I would have to get a 5 lug conversion first

I'm gonna talk to Jason, he's got the AEM kit on his CD5, H double deuce too. But anyways, I wasn't saying I was gonna get em though, I was just posting an alternate to the Tenzo units posted.

AEM can't make a brake kit worth anything. Look into Axxis Metal Masters or EBC Greenstuff if you don't want to spend a deep pocket...otherwise, Brembo and Wilwood make awesome kits.
