Default new to forum, bought a 92, need help

Hey yall, new to this forum... was told to come here cuz I got just bought a 92 Accord. I need a new exhaust and my rotors/breaks need to be replaced I think. Looking for some good prices, I heard to do the rotors/breaks it cost alot on the 4th gen Accords? Im not sure on the trim, the trunk it says EX but it has no sunroof and ABS... but it has power windows and A/C... does this mean its an LX?

So anyways, how is the greddy catback exhaust? its on ebay for $235... is that a good price? should I buy this? And what about the breaks? Thanks.

A pair of aftermarket rotors should go for under $150, look into www.rotora.com

Those prices seem to high, I need a complete upgrade, not just the rotors.

Ahh forget it, I'll just go with $30/each Bendex rotors, and non performance pads $20... that'll be $80. Thanks.

I bought it from the paper, I believe the trunk lid was replaced. It does NOT have a sunroof, ABS nor disks in the back; so I'm sure its not a EX. But how can I distinguish between LX and DX, and would it matter if I was shopping for the rotors/breaks?... cuz the parts store always asks... DX, LX or EX.

Yeah I just bought the stuff yesterday, but if I can still find a good price on some performance ones I would be interested. But so far the rotors were only $23 each and the pads were like $18, total after tax was $70.
