I have to say that the stock brake pads on the Integra seem to have a pretty good bite, cold or not. I think honda brakes typically are not very good, but these seem pretty good for every day driving. I have searched for a good aftermarket pads, and have failed mostly. I liked StopTech Sport the kevlar or para-aramid compound pads but they kept warping my CRV rotors because of the increased friction. I tried Hawk HPS, and the cold initial bite was horrible. Once warmed they were good. I tried EBC green stuff on my '95 GSR and they were horrible for some reason. I think I tried Akebono on my CRV and didn't like it at all. After a while I just went back to stock Honda pads on all my Hondas. I wonder if the current Integra pads are made by Akebono. If anybody has a suggestion for a nice set of pads that would be an improvement over the stock Integra pad, that would be great.
Ditto!

I do believe akebono does make Acura’s brake pads. I want to say Honda changed brake pads to Nissin. Excluding the ITS and type r which is Brembo

Yes Nissin was not only the pad but also the caliper vendor for honda, may still be.
