Question: Can slot & drill rotor be resurface? have anyone try this before I start?

So yeah, I slam on the brake the other day to avoid hitting a deer and now my rotor are wrap. Every time the pedal is touch I can feel the steering wheel shake.

you tell me? i do brembo's to porsche's on the brake lathe. dont let anyone else tell you, you cant do them. however, due to the center on our rotor design, i had to use the flywheel grinder.

wow! thanks, that looks really nice. I'm going to try mines tomorrow

If they warped that easy I'd throw them in the trash.

that's plan b

upgrade to at least the prelude/vigor/wagon brakes in front, our 10.2" rotors are way too tiny for a 3000lb car IMO.

Agree 10.2 is too tiny so upgrade to the 11.1 one last year, just ROH.

I'd consider if taking the time and money to machine them is worth it.

Reason why I say that is if it warped due to an emergency manouvre who's to say they won't again another similar incident happens? It should make you think how good the materials used on the rotors really are.

I have slammed my brakes (granted it was on a Prelude but still OEM Honda) to test the ABS a few times ensuring its operational and activates (before i purchased it) and a couple of times (to avoid collision) later when i had purchased it and it didn't warp the rotors.

I don't expect good quality rotors to warp so easily. I'd consider the quality of the materials your life and car is relying on (if they have indeed warped on a single evasive manouvre).

Just check also that the calipers are not biniding.

I have experienced this vibration before on my brothers CD Accord and someone here also experienced it.

Turned out to be a binding brake piston (could also be another component on the caliper - slide pin?). Check brake wear of the pads that they are even (both inboard and outboard).

If the wear on the brake pads are not even, then chances are your rotors are not warped. The force the calipers (both left and right) are applying may not be constant and even.

absolutely. but then again im a little lead footed so i need something stronger, upgrade dear friend.

thanks for advice man I was gonna try both new calipers after resurface but turn out the new rotor solve my case. I had to get new one after the 3rd cut because the groove on drill hole are missing. Don't know if it's true but I have read about rotor cracking because of no groove but yeah thanks everyone for the input.
