yeah i just recently did 94+ front brake upgrade on my del sol and stops like expected. its very easy swap... all you need are the knuckles, calipers, rotors and your set... you will use your d series axles. theres a huge write up on HT forum too...

Anyone know if any other larger acura vehicle can swap down to civic/integras? Like maybe something in the C class? Does the legend have any better brakes? I suppose I could research this one out, but it's not a need or die case for me, just curious.


Oh yeah necro, the signature below your avatar area is
"open your eye's i just pass you."

the correct way to phrase that would be:
"open your eyes, I just passed you."

depending on your preference, the comma in there could be swapped out with a dash (-) or a semicolon (.

Just trying to help ya out there man.

The reason i'm asking about the vigor calipors is because i want my brake setup to really handle the hmt kit. I just want to be safe. Quadnie I think your right about the (open your eyes) thing, thanks man i appreciated it. But if anyone could let me know if it could fit let me know. I've been asking around but some people think i'm crazy. Hey if it could work why not.

AFAIK the vigor shares the same caliper as the eariler model NSXs'
and i`ve sen ppl using nsx calipers on integras BOLTS ON.
but that`s for 5 lugs tho.

Excuse my blunt ignorance... but a vigor is an.... acura?
(We don't have acura in europe) If so, what type of Honda would that be?

I have Honda Accord calipers on my SiR brake setup. Wich would be the same as a civ EX etc...
I know Legend V6 dual pot calipers also fit with mild milling of the bracket. (offset issue)
Fun to know that except the NSX logo....those are the same!
