Brembo, Powerslot, etc. What do you suggest?
How do Brembo slotted rotors compare to Powerslot slotted rotors? I'm new to the whole brake upgrade thing, and I would like to know what brand of rotors and brake pads I should be goin' for for an Accord Coupe. I'm replacin' the rotors, because I'm sick of the stock ones warpin' on me all the time. I know NOW that the torque values of the wheel lugs can be a contributor to that problem and everything, but they are warped again, and I figured why not just swap 'em out for somethin' that performs better as well as accents my rims a lil better.
So give me some set up suggestions, please?

I second the OE Brembos.
If you can warp oem rotors easily then drilled/slotted rotors are going to warp easier. I would change my braking technique cause you may be hitting them to hard and not gradually coming to a stop like you should.

I'm only lookin' at slotted. I'm convinced that the drilled ones are not they way to go unless they are cast and what not....I don't need holes.
I don't believe it's my braking techs. I believe it's the torque value of my wheels + hard emergency braking every once and a while.
Thanks for the replies. Oh, and I do use the search feature often. I just wanted to ask the question in MY WORDS. Thanks

just a thought. I have heard so much negative stuff about Cross drilled and slotted i just decided to kep the regular brakes. but I wanted some larger rotors till I heard about AEM big brake kit who sucks large amount of A$$, so I found this site and have orderd a lot of stuff from them. www.accordstore.com The have a roter kit that is larger the stock but not to large and are regular brakes. I think I am going to go with those if not the Brembos. check it out.
I'm going to pick up a pair of Brembo slotted/drilled for the rear for $70 new...I guess I'll try them out to see if they crack or warp easily...maybe I'll get the front too ($90 a pair) and see how long they last...I'll give feedback after I put it in...in a couple of weeks...
Anyone have prices on the Brembo blanks...???
