hey guys,

i have just tried to fit up a set of brake pads for an EK4 onto my EK1 CXI and they dont fit.

can someone fill me in on the JDM equivalent of the EK1 CXI?

thanks

brendan

ps. kinda frustrating spending $150 on pads and they dont fit.......

if you have the SOHC engine try the EK1 GLi CXi pads.

speak to the dealer 1st and make sure you can take them back if the dont fit.

i have part numbers for the bendix pads and the endless pads... so getting pads isnt the issue. its just if i have to exchange the pads for new ones what japanese model code lines up with my EK1?

from memory

ek4 = db1262*
ek1 = db1259*

they look exactly the same but the db1259's are slightly smaller

these are bendix/ferodo part no's.
