Been trying to find answers about brake rotors/pads for my civic, can never find a accurate answer. Can I suggest we sticky up a thread for this?

something along the lines of....(dont quote me on this info)

EK Civic
Year Model Type Front(size/rotor/pad) Rear(size/rotor/pad)
1996 Cxi Hatch 242mm / DBA473 / DB1259 ????
1997 Gli Sedan 262mm / DBA474 / DB1262 239mm / DBA475 DB1163

---------------------------------------------------------

EG Civic
Year Model Type Front(size/rotor/pad) Rear(size/rotor/pad)
1992 Breeze Hatch 242mm / DBA473 / DB1259 Shoe / BS1692
1994 VTi Hatch 242mm / DBA473 / DB1259 239mm / DBA475 DB1163


If anyone can input their STOCK brake rotor/pads sizes it would make life easier.
Bendex/DBA online catalogs include different models which makes finding the right pad a b**** sometimes.

242mm would be D series motor.

262mm would be B series.

the later model 99-2000 model GLI has same rotor & caliper as ek4

I've change pads on both and they use the same pad. I don't see where the is a difference at all

Earlier model GLI has smaller rotors and caliper pre-97.

1998 year was a funny yr where you had either or, so just be careful









lol

just measure your disk.

EK Gli have 262mm + rear brake disc

EK Cxi have 242mm + rear drums

i matched up a ek gli rotors with an ek4 rotors. theyre the same diameter.
also had some ek cxi brake setup one and its smaller rotors.
