    Well I need to change my rotors, and I want to get something better then just the stock normal plain rotors. I found this: ACURA TSX [FRT+RR SET] *DRILLED & SLOTTED* Brake Rotors | eBay is it worth buying that, or should i get like brembo/mugen rotors and brake pads sets? Thank you in advance :)

    Hi all, I know there are a lot of opinions on this but i figured I'd get the latest opinions out there. I have a 2006 TSX which shakes when braking at high speed and when brakes are hot and thus looking to change out rotors and brake pads. I think i have narrowed it down to four options: 1)...

    Hey, I am new to the forum (as an actual member, I have been lurking for a while). I was wondering if anyone has had any luck with the Megan Racing springs for the tsx? They claim to have a 2" front and rear drop. The Tein S Tech springs say 1.7/1.3 Fr/R. Also, I noticed that the spring rate...

    Put on new Centric rotors and Axxis Ultimate brakes about 3 weeks ago and am now past the 500 mile break in period. Install took a good afternoon and holy crap were some of the bolts a pain in the ass to get off, so do yourself a favor and BUY the biggest torque wrench you can. As far as the...

    I spent this morning replacing my brakes and when I was doing the final corner, I decided to whip out the camera and contribute to the community since I didn't see a write-up in the DIY/FAQ section. What you need: Adjustable or 17mm wrench 12mm socket 3" or longer extension Rear Caliper Piston...

    I have had my car at the dealer 4 times now trying to fix break squealing that occurs all the time. I have 4000 miles on my car. Has anyone else had any problems at all?
