Upgrading brakes of my ED7
 
well somebody knows i got an EF (EDM) , it has bended discs, iwas thinking about to runing with ITR calipers i can get, with 11 (maybe 12"?)....i was researching some info about this , found some topics about this but what i want is runing with all stock (means Knuckles....etc.) so i need this :

1/8" wheel spacer
ITR calipers /legend (23T brackets i can get)
Discs 11 or maybe 12 inchs (i was thinking in getting Power Slot Big brakes).

What do you think? i think can run good but not sure in all.. calipers bolt paresnt are the same than ED7 capilers?

P.S. I assume 15inch or 16 for 12 inch is minimun wheels i should be running.

The SiR EF's have a 10" disc and a large caliper, I'd personally go with that setup. Just make sure to get the entire spindle with the hub and everything and bolt it on and go. I just did a DA integra spindle and brake swap on my ED6, but I haven't driven it yet to see how it feels...need to get it aligned first. You really shouldn't need anything larger than that in an ED chassis unless you're doing some major autocross type of driving. Then I could see wanting 11" brake setup. Check out www.fastbrakes.com if you want an 11" rotor setup on the cheap. They make an adapter that uses a 11" VW corrado rotor and a DA integra caliper and mount bracket that bolts on to your stock ED spindles.

To add to your awesome brake setup, get a 15/16's master cylinder too Walter. I'm noticing that my DA calipers have a little more pedal travel than I want with the 7/8's master I put on there to replace my worn out 15/16's.
