you mean you want a more firmer pedal? First off how many miles do you have on your pads as of now? Also when was the last time you had them bleed or the rears adjusted. If it has been awhile, adjust the rear and bleed the brakes it pad life is good and that should give you a somewhat firmer pedal.
But from experience if you want a good firm pedal and good stopping power, go with some high performance pads, either hawk or Axxis or something along those lines.

better pads and brake fluid. You will get more dust and have to change both the pads and fluid more often, but should give you better feel.

I'm not talking about actual braking power, but rather Pedal feel. Most hondas feel like your steping on a sponge when you hit the brakes.
