mine did that allot too when i start flyin about 80 mph and i start to tap the brakes, the problem fixed with me pads for me, and thats what you should hope for, other wise, your forced to spend allot of money getting new rotors, hell maybe with a lil extra $ just get performance rotors, but try spendin 15$ on pads 1st, my pads were just worn crooked for some odd reason (im not a bad driver i swear) :-P

Ya, that shaking should be checked NCSTYLE. I had that problem too and it turned out to be warped rotors (the shaking as you slow down). Its real irritating. Cost me a grip to have fixed. Took it to honda.

If you have warped rotors its mass cheap to fix. I had a shop turn them for about $20(turn=flating them back out). I could also have got new rotors for about 25 dollars each.

SO im not sure what the rest of you are talking about???

My max has been 100mph....I have nothing done to my car(i need to find me a suga daddy to hook my car up)....and I really shouldn't be going any faster than 50-65 mph on highways...cuz thats our speed limit..and I've been pulled over for speeding 3 too many times. If I could handle the cold weather a little better I'd move to Montana where the speed limit on the highways is "Reasonable and Prudent" during the day. Now whose to say what is reasonable and prudent?????

Move somewhere other than the US, and then you might be able to get one.

Ok, first off, I doubt you have a CTR, but if you do, then I bow to you cuz that's pretty trick. And second of all a CTR won't do 157, cuz it's governed at 112, but even without that it would only do 130 MAX! So anyway, just about every civic is governed at less than 120, and accords won't run over 130 MAX again (with a V6)

well it is possible he could have a CTR since if you look to the side he does live in England...where CTR's are available!.....not the crappy north american civics you see here on the roads.....

I have had my integra up to 135 on 83 north if anyone knows where that is. It takes a while but it will do it. 157 is a little unbelievible.
