Ordered some standard Brembo pads from eBay ](*,) I found they didnt fit or look anything like the other pads on(Red Stuff). They look more like facelift pads but the box describes them as Honda Integra 02- Heres where i brought them;

I got them when they were £36 delivered though. Heres a pic:

So they have sent me the incorrect ones or the ones they are listing are incorrect in the first place?

all dc5R's have the same pad, no difference between facelift and pre.

hmm.... i would maybe stick them on my 1.6 98 bhp MK4 astra..... not so much a 220+ bhp integra....
Ferrodo make the brembo branded pads which are then rebranded as honda and sold as oem. Standard mintex pads are just as good as the standard ferrodos (ie oem). A little knowledge goes a long way skerr!

i've mintex 1144's in my car and i rate them highly, but they can squeal a little when cold, may go back to standard as there cheaper and are as good for road use, think the standard pads are 53sterling or if not cheaper
