hi,

just wanting opinion on which one i should get, as my current dc2r BMC is dying.

if i went with the wilwood compact BMC would the cusco brake stopper work with it?

thanks

stick to oem.

the compact is not a good idea as it does away with the brake booster, which will increase pedal effort ten fold.
not only that but its highly illegal in australia to not have a functioning brake booster. (unless for some reason its different in qld)

tbh i dont know cos my mechy told me when i did the 5stud convo, i assuming how soft it felt and how much effort to brake

get a rebuild kit from honda or source another used one. The rebuild kit cant be used if the bore on your BMC is already scored.

did you change the master and booster to match the 5 stud? or did you just keep the one you had?

As benjamin said
Have U need to changed prop valve too?

I did whole 5- whole 5 stud conversion too
U need to change prop valve for correct brake line pressure
