ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    Brake Pad Comparison Hawk HPS (VTEC calipers) vs OEM (Accord Calipers)

    I just wanna share for those that are curious about the diff. in pad size going from CB7 sedan/coupe brakes to Prelude VTEC pads. Its a noticeable size increase. I'm doing the Vigor caliper/rotor swap soon and am kinda excited so i took pics, enjoy lol.

      Just a tip for those Hawk pads. Keep an eye on the shim. Mine wiggled loose and started scraping the hat on the rotor after a few months. I just ended up pulling them off together and haven't had any complaints. They're a pretty decent pad, but expect to be washing your wheels every week

        PBR Racing semi metalic pads are pretty good too. really low dust, almost no squeaking. Im buying another set when the time comes. I have 30K on these, and they still look new.
        EDIT: And they grip like hell, i havent seen a pad that grips like this.
