Funny, I find them all day long at the wreckers for 25.00 CAN a peice. The only reason I don't run them is because they don't fit 13" Slicks.

I`ve seen ppl drill/mill NSX/vigor/type II legend caliper to work.
get some really good tire and pad helps a TON tho. If your brakes are not overheating a lot i don`t really think u need bigger ones.

and FYI after u upgrade ur caliper if u feel the need of a bigger MC you can use 90 to 91 civic EX 4 door non- ABS unit. it has a 1 inch piston and will bolt on to all non-ABS 5G brake booster and hardlines

Actually 15/16", I have 2 of them.

Either that or a 88-91 Prelude MC.
