Are you having any issues with the rear brakes wearing out prematurely? I noticed that was a common problem on early 8th gen accords

Yeah, I haven't changed my brake pads yet but I'm coming up on 44k right now and I'm sure they're still OEM and kicks up a lot of brake dust.
I'll buy some new pads soon and install them to check it out.
and as owequitit said you switch the slide pins in the rear calipers and it should cure the premature wear problem.

I just bought a P2R Intake manifold riser last night and I think I am going to buy ported runners too. I want some more low end torque with my Accord.

Just getting the intake manifold spacer and ported runners already go for 500 bucks.. about a set of coilovers. I am not sure if I want to lower it with just fall left then winter....I might wait till next year.

I've since added almost all the bolt ons this car has, I'll update when I get on my home computer.
My shit pulls hard...I'm guessing I'm closing in near the 300whp mark.
Updated my mod list as well.Last edited by vietkid_2006; 04-22-2015, 11:37 AM.
