Will Dc2 VTiR front disc's + rotors be a dirrect swap for my Ek1 CXi front brakes?
Or do i need some other parts?
Edit: Disc's and calipers**. Lol, i didn't realise i wrote discs + rotors :o

most likely u'll need DC2 calipers too...i think DC2 and EK4 share the same rotor size (262mm)...
ps: discs and rotors are the same thing :D

If you look at them closely, they are exactly the same size.
Your better off saving your moeny and upgrading to type R brake calipers and rotors.

I already purchses front+rear calipers, with front disc's.
I was told they should be a dirrect swap, but i was also told i'll need the Dc2/Ek4 knuckle.
And benson, how can they be same size, CXi are 240mm and Dc2/Ek4 are 262mm. Wouldnt the caliper have to be bigger?

the EK sedans have 262mm rotors ~ as do some CXi hatchbacks too (later ones i think?) - measure it yourself and tell us :)

later model 2000+ civics are the same as the ek4 & Dc2(earlier model).
I did a change in a GLI and it was exactly the same

Well mine is built Aug 95' so it has 240mm.
I guess ill just go for the swap and see if its dirrect fit because some say yes some say no...
