Break upgrade question

[markoJEK1]

im getting b18cR conversion and i cant be stuffed looking for 5 stud conversion, im wondering what the standard break size is supposed to be to comply with the engine ?

282mm is the disc width from memory

juz get rda or dba rotors for 4 stud pattern and better brake pads...

the cheapest alternative is to get honda legend brakes because they are 5 stud and the same diameter as the ITR's. also 5 stud.

as far as I know the EK1 has 262mm front brakes, that means you can do a big brake conversion with the following calipers: CL17VN15 (found on ITR, CRV, ACCORD something) the ideal brackets are the T25 brackets (ITR) and Accord, also the legend KA7/8 dual piston calipers and the NSX work well but those are hard to find and usually a bit on the pricey side. The CRV front calipers I was able to get for 70 EUR/pair at a junkyard. The T23 needs a bit adjustment, nothing major. can be done with a flex.

You will need rover front disc brakes (282mm) of an MGZR 160 PS I think. (Check for EBC OEM replacement disks) They are 4/100 and exactly what you need.

For the back you need EP3/EP2 calipers and EP2 or EP3 USDM 4/100 disk brakes 260mm (EBC again). Well, if you already have rear disc brakes.
