Hey Guys. I have a Honda Integra DC5 Luxury (2003). Time is coming up for my front brakes (or whats left of them) to take a hike. Now I understand that Acura RSX Base is the same car but marketed in the US. I have found front brakes that I can get shipped over; they fit the american equivalent. Just to be sure I have asked the seller if my car is compatible before I purchased the item. He is unsure, and actually thinks it does not fit. I have searched all over the place for the answer and all I could find was advice to replace the braking system with the one of Type S or R as the pads are really hard to come by.... Can someone with a bit more knowledge advise before I potentially throw away $100-150

Thanks in advance.

Why not buy pads locally?

Because Bendix doesn't make them. Honda stealership wanted to charge me hundreds. With that said I would love to purchase them locally if you know of someone who can help. :)

what about brands like RDA, EBC, QFM, Ferodo, Project Mu?

Try pm one of the sellers here, i'm sure they can help

Alternatively walk into an auto store and ask them. A lot of honda brakes are used over multiple models so it shouldn't be too hard to find

No... I wish...

Just calipers and brake support.

I bought rotors and pads separately.
