Re:2gen/4gen Civic CRX brake upgrade
alright, I'll do one, but you can't make fun of my hair and how skinny I am and how ghetto I do it like everybody else does.

Oh yeah, very informative too. ;) Where is the front brake swap? Also, did you do a weight comparison between the drum and the disk setup? I'm thinking about doing the rear disks, but not if it's going to add weight. :-\ |

Re:2gen/4gen Civic CRX brake upgrade

Re:2gen/4gen Civic CRX brake upgrade

;D ;D
Im running '90 to '93 Integra rotors and calipers front and back on my '99 civic 4dr. with my stock prop. valve and MC. Ractive cross drilled/slotted rotors(cause their cheap and look good) EBC greens new Teg brake lines from Honda KYB agx with Eibach's and 205/40/17 prada spech-2 (I listed these because suspension and tires affect braking performance) I dont get any rear lock up like some people told me My braking distance is shorter(somepeople told me it wouldnt be with out changing prop.valve) My pedal feel is at least as good as before. my pedal travel is a little longer than before (but i like it that way for heel/toe and threshold braking) I have a 4040 prop valve but inever put it on and dont need it and i use this car on the track at club days(but i use 15" weels with toyo's 205/50/15 |

Re:2gen/4gen Civic CRX brake upgrade
