agreed they are heat treated but take a heat treated object re-heat it and water cool soon after and you can realllllllly mess up some stuff... your brakes will become EXTREMELY brittle as sick stated in his story... I wonder if its ever happened to anyone though...

Honda says those are single use bolts on the rotors.
