honda quality parts advice

Yes. I used to buy cast iron table saw tables from the foundry that,
at that time, made most of the rotors, drums and hubs in the U. S.
Waupaca foundry in Wisconsin. Very good foundry, I think owned by the
Budd Corp now.

 

so then whats "pot metal"? i know its cheap, and its cast.

Rotors can be had cheap. What you need to watch out for is that on some
Honda/Acura cars they installed the rotor behind the hub. This means that
a what should be a simple 1/2 hour rotor swap turns into a 1.5 hour rotor
swap. That assumes you can undo the axle bolt easiley. If your car has
this stupid design, I would stick with the softer pads that don't eat
through the rotors as quickly.

I've used Brembo rotors on many vehciles with excellent results. In
fact, I replace the factor warp-masters on my '03 Accord with Brembos
and have been enjoying excellent braking ever since.

Of those I have only tried PBRs and they were fine. Generally I install
top of the line Raybestos or Wagner pads when I do brake jobs on my
cars. Every company makes several grades of pads these days. Get one
of the top end pads from any major maker and you are probably ok.

I would use the Honda, NTK or Densos myself. For some reason my luck
with Bosch parts has been very hit-and-miss. Never tried Walker.

I guess no one has answered the basic question yet?? In my experience
using Brembo rotors on my Honda, two SAABs, my son's Mitsubishi, and our
Volvo, I would say "yes", Brembo makes good rotors. The finish is
excellent and I've not had any problems with any of the cars that I've
installed Brembo rotors.

I usually buy all of my Brembo parts from one of the various internet
sources, such as www.thepartsbin.com. Decent prices, and excellent
delivery.
