I noticed a huge difference- i can now drive hard and neva have to worry about fade and they also have a beta feel to them

Stock accord rotor's don't impress me at all. I found it all to easy to warp the stock rotors. Being that the price for doing something wrong with drilling that like he says could be the ultimate price, I don't endose what he did. You or I do not know more that the people what do brake systems for a living.

Want to improve your brakes, purchase a set of brembo slotted rotors and quality pads. I ran slotted dimpled brembos. They were not drilled all the way through the rotors, so cracking could not ever happen. I tested them on the same mountain foothill road I test struts on. 35 miles of either, 100% braking, cornering or on the gas. I never had any fade, brake feel was dramatically better, much easier to modulate at the limit and shorter stopping distances.
