Your best bet would just be to look at your stock suspension and see if the JDM ---- looks bigger. If it is, upgrade, if not, leave it stock b/c it would be a waste of time.

I know for a fact that the EF SiR brakes are bigger and better than the dx stoppers. Even the usdm ED Si front brakes are larger, but mostly in the caliper and pad, rotors are almost the same size. Maybe you'll luck out and they'll be the same as the civic ex fronts...same size as 90-93 integra fronts. Oh, and while you're at it, pick up a rear disc conversion from an Si or DC integra and the proportioning valve...trust me...you'll love it

People say that you have camber issues with the Integra Setup in the from. I didn't notice when I used them, but I had a front Camber kit already.

YES SiR brakes are bigger. I have all 3 in my shop, dx what came on the car, Integra, what I run now, and SiR from my RHD Clip. The Brakes on the SiR are bigger then the Dx and the same size as the Integra.

For disc and pad, my guess is that they are the same as the Integra one. I can check, buit I'll never get time!!!

You'll want to run the proper prop valve and a bigger master cylinder from a Prelude, Interga or the SiR.

Yes it brakes better. I have complete Disc from an integra on my gutted hatch, stops on a dime.

As for Rear Discs. If you paying250.00 I think your getting ripped off!! I paid 50.00 A side Canadian Dollars. Had to get new pads and rotors, but I would always do that no matter how good of condition they came in!!! PLus Pads and rotors are cheap. I still came under 250CAN in the end!!!

Thats the market value though on them. I have sold 5 sets at that price in the 200-250 range+shipping

Now why would an SiR use an integra from spindle and brake setup? That's kinda weird, cause from everything i've seen and heard, the 4 door civic ex's had regular civic spindles, but with the integra sized rotors and calipers to get around the camber issue. You would think that if anything they would put those on the front of an SiR. At least how i see it anyway
