So I am currently getting things ready in the brake department while my shell is being sprayed.
In relation to boosters and m/c, I've tracked a couple cars in europe (not hondas) that did not run a booster. Pedal feedback was interesting in a good way. Pedal effort was solid feeling albiet alot more pressure needed.... I quite enjoyed it but must say it would definately not be to everyones liking.
I'm working with the common shaved bracket DC2R caliper on a redrilled prelude disc in place of the existing 262mm on the EK4.... just a simple upgrade that is plenty for the power I'll have.
I'm not totally wanting to scrap the booster, but given I am aiming towards going for a 1" m/c (ITR M/C) due to the larger piston sizes on the DC2R calipers, would running the EK4 booster with the 1" m/c produce the effect I am looking for (slight increase in pedal effort) without sacrificing anything?
Is the ITR m/c able to mate up to the EK4 booster?
And I guess while I'm at it.... does the ITR M/C match up to the existing hard brake lines in the EK4 or am I looking at doing some bending?
