Hey guys,

Was looking for these for the front and rear online but havent been able to find any ones for the ek9.
Does anyone have any uk sites where they sell them?? Thanks..and yes I have tried google.

Honestly? Im abit of a brand whore :D .. Tried to get some plain dixcels but theyre out of stock and I didnt want to wait two weeks (have terrible stories surrounding back orders etc lol) Also I didnt really want to go down the ebc route with all the mix reviews Ive heard ( a good brake disc should speak for itself) and in that respect an ebay job wont do..It'll be mostly for "spirited driving" on B-roads and also a few track days this year. :)

Any chance of some help?

Thanks!
 
I think I might be able to yes :) I'm currently looking for customers to evaluate a new supplier. I've been recommended them by several DC2 owners who use them for their track cars and are very highly rated.
I'll send you a PM with some info if you're interested?
 
Yea that would great, makes buying brakes a little bit more productive I guess ! haha

Brembo max aren't better than oem rotors
I 've all ready try them (262 x 21 mm+ ferodo pads on my ej9) they warped like the oem rotors, no deference!
The problem with ek4 civics ( and maybe ek9s) is that they have too much of their brake power to the frond calipers and their rotors are too thin (21mm).
So if you 're heavy foot on brakes and want a healthy & reliable brake system you must:
1. replace rotors - pads more often!
2. replace oem brakes with a good big brake kit!

If your constantly warping discs, its more likey to be your driving style rather than the disc's you are using.
