Rotor question
- Thread starter 97silverferio

Why do you need drilled and slotted rotors on a 106 hp car? Don't buy drilled off of ebay, I can guarentee you they will crack pretty quick. If you MUST have drilled buy some Brembos... they're pretty cheap. Just make sure they are gold, if not it's just the blanks drilled by some... guy with a drill.. I guess... and since the EXs have ABS I am pretty sure the fitment should be the same... but look around I'm sure you can find specs.... or go to a website that sells rotors and see if your car and the 92-00 EX fall intot he same buying catagory or whatever.97silverferio said:

Yeah but my fronts are warped with 122k on 'em. I'm saving up for a B18c soon and i just wanna have some "better than stock" rotors down the road. I've been looking at sites on google all night im im seeing a lot of EX's matching up with the LX's with ABS. im sure i'll be fine. BTW what have u done with your ride?
Just get Brembo Blanks. Brembo never Cross Drill and Slot their rotors together. Its either one or the other. If you decide to purchase on ebay, be careful. Those are usually drilled from blanks.
As far as abs goes, I know there' are seperate part numbers. Yo ucan go to the brembo site and find your application.

civic i beg to differ brembo does slot and cross drill thier rotors too. what do you think porsche uses on thier cars. take a look at the gran turismo big brake kit BREMBO DOES CROSS DRILL THE ROTORS. brembos are good stay away from the ones on ebay though unless they are the bronze hats. brembo oem blanks come silver but the slotted ot drilled or drilled and slotted brembos come in bronze. id go with power slots 97 they are cheaper and good discs unless you are auto crossing or have high hp you dont need much more than factory discs. civic im not bashing but they do drill rotors at brembo. nice ride byt he way i havent ever said anything about your civic but i do like it.

I meant to say,
They never cross drill and slot their rotors in one piece. Its either one or the other. This is for replacement rotors and not the big brake kits, etc.
Thats what Im trying to say when you see them on ebay. They have them cross drilled and slotted, which they never do.

Thanks for the comps. 8)

Like mentioned above, real Brembo Crossed Drill Rotors or Slotted Rotors will come in a Bronze Color rotor. One more color should be available I believe.97silverferio said:
The blanks like I recently purcahsed is silver like the one you posted.
Unless Im not in the know, I havent seen any Crossed-Drill & Slotted Rotors from Brembo that are Bronze in color.
anekin007 it says those rotors in the link you provided will fit an LX with out ABS. I have ABS....what does ABS have to do with rotors anyway???
you sure you have abs? i heard that some 92-95 lx models that have abs but i never heard of 96-00.. i didnt know.. i thought abs were in ex only..
if you do have abs.. you should get the front rotors for 96-00 ex and 99-00 si.
check out this link.. http://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=831188 ..i think they sell the best deals for brembo blanks.. check out their website too, the link is in the first post..

I have arospeed cross drilled and slotted rotors paid $119 for them at a local shop, along with some bendix ceramic pads and the car stops great. im totaly happy with my choice of rotors and pads. Pretty soon im gonna do a rear disc brake convertion, gonna try to stock pile all nessary parts new. and then when i have it all do the convertion.
There are notches in the rotor I THINK that the ABS sensor uses......97silverferio said:

if i remember right the ABS sensors are on the CV axle. the only other thing i can figure out is different about them would be how far in they sit off the hub or something bc the toothed ring and sensor may take up about an extra 1/4 in the hub itself.
edit: the only difference between the ABS and non-ABS i believe is the hub????
