id toss in raybestos too. to be honest, though. ive had good luck on all
other cars with whatever the "lifetime" brake pad is. save the receipt,
get new pads for as long as you own the car.

high thanks for response

my dealer wants 274 which is close to price

so my worst price for (front rotors, pads, h02s} is 485 the best is 128
which is reason for post... 350 is alot of quality wiggle room ? i do not
mind paying for quality, i do not want to overpay on the "probably ok" stuff

thanks again

Dunno.

In the future I plan to go with strictly Honda OEM. From my
reading, the "lifetime" pads use material that is harder and
so lasts longer, but also as a result shortens the life of
the rotor. The cost of Honda OEM pads (around $40 online for
my 91 Civic) is low enough that I think they're worth it.

= heated oxygen sensor

(1) From my reading the aftermarket O2 sensors can be
persnickety; and (2) an OEM sensor might be had for a very
competitive price at https://www.automedicsupply.com/ . At
least, for my 91 Civic, it was a steal at about $45
altogether. Very good service and shipping.

P.S. my 91 Civic's OEM sensor is made by Nippon Denso, now
called IIRC just Denso.

I just put Akebono Ceramics on my '97 accord. Only a few thousand
miles on them but they are quiet, low dusting and I was impressed with
the quality of the pads and adhesive shims out of the box. Time will
tell.

Actually, the site I posted before lists the manufacturer as
just "Denso." The packaging for my 91 Civic's sensor says
just "Denso" on it. The history of Denso Corp. states that
NipponDenso Co. became Denso Corp. in 1996:
