NICE! For me it was Stoptech rotors,lines and sport pads and G2 black as well. I've had Hawks, which i loved, but dusted a bit more than I needed for a weekender.

Looks like it was a maintenance weeekend...it rained here in Ohio as well, so took advantage of wrenching weather and got the valves adjusted, installed a new OEM idle air control valve (idles still kinda funky...going to try idle relearn procedure next), and installed from beefy brakes with stainless lines to help me with my stoppies.

I did the Hawk ceramic pads - they do still dust slightly but nowhere near as bad as the OEM pads.
I see you took the brakes apart - I painted mine in place... Next time (if there is ever another) I will do the same.

Since I was replacing the rotors and the lines, I had to pull them off anyways. I tried to paint them while holding them, which was a big challenge trying to move them around at the right angle without messing up the wet paint. Should have built a small rack and hung them by a wire. But hey, hindsight is 20/20, right?

Doing a coolant swap from green to Honda Blue, so drain, flush, flush and fill and expel all air. Also did a gravity bleed on the clutch for both, it was time.
