Dont bother with K&N oil filter

Even Spoon are using oem on their race motors..so good enough for daily euro family car :)

i didnt notice the catalogue button the the size :P

actually now that i did a search...i just realised the ACT787 "set" is just for the fronts? so i need to buy the rears separately lame

$98.38 for front and rears delivered ($10 gift card)
so gay that amazon is like $10 more than the other sellers who wont ship internationally

thanks for the oil filter tip tho guys

Got the ProACT and they feel more or less the same as the stock pads I had. Wanted the "Performance" ASP787 & ASP537 from tirerack originally but they wanted some ridiculous amount for shipping so went with what amazon had.
Got them for the low dusting they supposedly had but was probably hoping for too much lol. Wheels still look black every time I come to wash my car.

ah noes! i hesitated and was about to snap them up today but the price went up!
:sadface:

Use tirerack.com or heeltoeauto.com

How much has it gone up by? I always thought amazon was pretty static with their prices as a whole.

tirerack is more expensive than Amazon and they indicate that the stopping power of the akebonos are only 2 out of 5 of whatever measurement they use! WTFFFFFF thats crap!

and the hawk ones are expensive as

Heel toe auto rip you off via shipping all the time, so never buying from them

sorry to dig up old thread but i so realise that the accord cu2 brakes are larger than the ones in USA
