Caliper, rotor, brake booster and MC.

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

my friend got a 1996 Gli EK1 hatch and he bought the vtir brake pads, its the same shit.
Caliper & rotor are the same for Gli and vtir.
With the integra vtir, the rotors are the same but the caliper are different

just to help out -
EK4 / EM1 / EK1 / EG6 / EG2 / DC2 / DC4 / 96 DC2R all share the same front rotors , and the calipers/pads mix inbetween. You can swap the calipers/pads of any of these and use then for any other in the list

some of the earlier Vtir civics used the smaller rotor and pads.
Found this out when i went to buy pads cos i got a late 97 model it was abit of a hassel working out which ones i needed, ended up taking them off at end of day and taking them down
