what is the best hmkit for front brakes?
 
I got a 6th gen civic an looking to get a front brake setup that w/ be able to handle a d series hmt kit. I know yall have something for the rear but i am putting together that also. I have everything except for one caliper and a bracket, also the brakeline. I know about the aem big rotor kit but is it much of a difference in stopping?

gsr front knuckles w/ brakes are a good upgrade.
or 99-00 si.

I doubt for daily driving youll even need to upgrade.

I'm a bit confused as to what you have and what you are looking for. As mentioned, integra brakes are a common swap up, research around to see what else fits, people put C-4 corvette front dual piston calipers on the front of their DSM cars, as well as from 3000GT and GSX calipers.. the stock eclipse RS/GS/GST brakes do suck tho.

Nothing like my quad piston volvo calipers, maybe I just need to see if those will bolt up to the civic I'm about to part out, that would be tits having crazy brakes meant for a 2 ton vehicle on a civic.

I have a d series and wasn't sure if the integra set up would fit. How much work do i have to put in it to fit? But would the si 99-00 work better than the integ ls? Which one should i choose? And yes it's a daily driver but just wanted to be safe with stopping when i install my turbo.

I thought the ls have bigger calipers than a civic. Would there be a problem with the axle fitting into the si/gsr? ???

no they should be all the same for 92+civics and 90+teg's.
