(New here!!) Bare with me. Just got some new rotors in from pwjdm and notice that all four are the same sizes is that common? (drilled/Slotted) I was told by a local shop in my town that the rear would be bigger and the front are same as stock or the other way around, never done rotors before! And expecting some EBC RedStuff are they any good?

shouldn't be the same size front and back, i see what you're saying, but still, they should be 2 different sizes. did you order 2 sets of the same brakes? you have to order the rears separate from the fronts.

if you have 02-03 these are the front:

rear:

04-05 front:

rear:

ebc red stuff should be good. for the money spent on pwjdm rotors you could have just gone with ebc usr rotors.

I have BBK on my car as long as I can remember but I think stock rotors are 10.3 front 10.2 rear.
But why password jdm ? You can get nice Brembo blanks for 50 each (check tirerack). Drilled or slotted brembos for 145.
Pads are personal choice.

There's a guy on here that did a mini cooper 280mm rotor swap which is alittle over 11" but only for the front.

Quote from him "bought the rotors on ebay for 42 shipped, calipers and brackets come from accord wagon, acura legend or acura 3.0 cl, they were $35 total at the junkyard"

Yeah I did order rear and front I realized that they are diff size by a lil. sorry if I sound like a newbie! older civic are much easier to search parts for. Forums aren't really my thing. I chosed pwdjdm because I don't know to many sites to search parts for our ep3 I know what I want to do to my car just hard me to find a good quality site if anyone can provide me good sites for body motor, etc. it would be great will add picks of car pretty soon!! Thanks

What's a good disc for not a lot of cash? Are the UBC ebc discs any good? I had KVR slotted with HPS pads and they are ok. Was thinking maybe brembo or oe blanks. I auto x once in a while with lots of spirited driving.

What's the size diff for Rsx rotors? Usable with stock ep3 calipers/pads?

A guy posted up some slotted rotors for Rsx-s on Craigslist.
