500HP what brakes?
I am currently overhauling a 93 integra and modding it up to have around 500hp. Can i have recommendations for a brakes upgrade.
It is currently 4wheel disk. Should i get better rotors, pads, calibers? What brands are better than others? Does brembo make brakes for honda? i know brembo for the best brakes for bikes, anyway thanks

RE: 500HP what brakes?
It depends what kind of racing you will be doing. If you are doing drag racing then you shouldn't need a really aggressive brake set up so brembo slotted rotors + Hawk pads should do the trick. If you race at the track (non drag) then you might want to look into the Brembo big brake kit. The brembo set is $2k but I think other companies (willwood maybe) make cheaper kits.

For a 500whp Honda, stock is more than enough. You won't have traction worth **** on the street, and at the track you've got quite a good amount of time to slow down. Brembo blanks and HAWK pads would be the most I'd put on it, but that's after you warp your stock brakes brake-boosting on a 600whp Nitrous Camaro... get what I'm saying?
