will EM1 brake kit still be good enough for the b18c2... need to upgrade brakes once the engine is put in... its hard to find DC2 VTIR brake kits... any difference what so ever?

EJ8 and EM1 front brakes are identical. Only will need to upgrade rear to disc if needed. Which i highly doubt you'll need.

cool... i guess i buy EM1 brake set up... btw is it easy doing the set up from drum to disk because of adding cables for the rear brakes to work...

afaik you'll need a 40/40 prop valve from a rear disc car and the handbrake cables
i got the ek4(same as em1) front and rear disc setup if you're interested ;)

everything you need minus prop valve and handbrake cables(you can upgrade the master cylinder and brake booster if you want but i believe the stock one should be okay)

um the reason why i want to change to whole thing is because i already have a lil problem with the brakes.... everytime i brake at fast speeds it makes the car shake... its hard to just find someone selling only rear disk setup, so might as well go whole thing...
