i think it should do since you upgraded ur initial size brakes from 242mm to 262mm.

Ive heard that as u are running the b18c7 from a dc2r u need to upgrade ur brakes and suspension to at least whats standard on the dc2r.

Dunno how legit this info is just remember hearing it from someone who went through engineers

Think they do a braking test by taking ur car to a certain speed and brake hard. If ur brakes pull u up nicely than u should he ok. Maybe just upgrade pads and rotors? And try it out?

I think you'll be fine. My friend got his B18C7 engineered to his CRX and they did a brake test by making him jump on the pedal at XX KM/s hour. Small car anyway should be fine.

Yea i reckon do it and find out. At least u know if u do need to upgrade brakes or anything like that its for ur own safety.

i think if you have disc brakes on all four wheels it should be fine
the engineer will compare the power from a B16A to B18CR
make sure the rest of the car is legal as you may need to fix that too
