Hi,
what brakes do you guys reckon would be a good upgrade for an EK hatch.
Would dc2 brakes fit? And does prelude hubs fit into an EK?

How hard are you going to push your car? No point doing a brake conversion if it's purely used for day-to-day driving. If your looking at the cheaper end, some upgraded pads and fluid would be the better option. You could get slotted rotors as well if you like.

Unless you'll be tracking it often, i don't think it's necessary for bigger brakes ect

stick your foot out the door and let your shoe do the job like when you'd ride a push bike with worn brake pads
/troll

on a more serious notes simplest setup would be itr calipers + redrilled 282mm disc

dc2 calipers are bigger then ek calipers.

if you have a cxi get disc brakes for the rears.

but yea as others have said you can just upgrade your pads
