262mm if your talking about brakes..
56mm piston
Ok so what's necessary to fit them to an EK? Do you *have* to do a hub swap to 4x114.3 ITR hubs? What about front? I really just want bigger rotors... mine are so tiny...
get ek1 gli calipers/rotors. should bolt on to your cxi if you have cxi.Quote:

25th yr annoversary one if that would make any difference.
I bought & am using vtir integra rear pads...if that helps...
I also have the stock jdm itr 96spec front calipers if ur interested with the discs that u could just re-drill to 4x100
you're looking at a brake conversion so yeah hub swap, new rims (or you could get your ones re-gauged) i think fron'ts and backs are the same on the ITRs, should be easy enough if you know what you're doing. need disk, calipers, hub, piston and 4x114.3 rims off the top of my head
I've got multi fit 4x100/4x114.3 rims so that's not an issue. So what's the difference in calipers between the EK and ITR? Just bigger pistons in the ITR? I feel like a bit of a noob lol but honestly there are so many brake swap setups.. honda certainly do a great job with making everything interchangeable. I'm competent mechanically, just working out exactly what the right parts are is important to me obviously, don't want to be getting things that don't bolt straight on!
edit: waaaiitt a minute... did a google search.. is the rear 96 spec calipers 7CLP13S? I already have these... I thought they'd be different - are the rotors on the 96ITR just bigger in the rear or something?
double edit: and these are the fronts? this guy did it easy as hell by just milling the bracket front ITR swap
put a deposit down on my rims, should arrive tuesday-ish
Nice. Any teaser pics of what rims look like... or "you gonna make me find out the hard way"? :)Quote:

ITR 96spec front brake calipers
If your not sure about fitting... the best bet is to buy the whole brake/hub assy and swapping over from your current setup
VTIR/EK9/JDM ITR 96spec/AUDM ITR = 32mm outer driveshaft sizes
JDM ITR 98spec = 36mm outer driveshaft size
Very nice!!!! how does the braking feel? more confident now? lolQuote:

Isn't 98 spec AUDM itr drive shafts same as ek4?
Only JDM 98 spec itr drive shafts were the larger size if I'm not mistaken.
Yeah only the JDM 98 spec is 36mm. AUDM is still 32mm

Right hand side was easy, bolts came out with no problems at all. LEFT hand side however, both bolts connecting to the frame were so seized it's not funny. Tried WD40, some other penetrating fluid, big breaker bar - nothing worked. One of them the head is nearly stripped, and I can't get it out. The other one is even worse - I thought I'd gotten it because it made the lovely 'broken the seal' noise - but it's actually just spinning endlessly in the hole and won't come out. Umm... help? :(
yer i been raeding my thread and seeing this.. okay well u need go out and get urself these rachet/braker bar sockets, what they have is little teeth inside them which lock on the bolt, and allow you to undo them no matter how bad the damage is, if u got a sydney tools near u then they got em and there also a great help, but just chill out, cos freaking out about it only make things worse trust me lol let me know how u go :)Quote:

* cleaned out air filter and intake piping:
This is what it looked like when the filter came out. This is industrial air conditioning filter material I put over the top of the pod with Yamaha foam filter oil (from my dad's old bike lol - sticky as sh*t it is!).
The white stuff is washing powder - got a bit on there before took photos. Opps.
http://i1132.photobucket.com/albums/...C01461edit.jpg
Original pod filter still looks brand new underneath:

Found little pebbles at bottom of intake:
http://i1132.photobucket.com/albums/...C01467edit.jpg
Oiled it up, strapped it down, and now I have a big blue fairy floss under the mugen lid :)
http://i1132.photobucket.com/albums/...C01463edit.jpg
Why do you run the fairy floss over the filter? Filter on filter seems like a restriction to me?
Bit of an experiment really + bit of because I didn't have k&n oil and wasn't sure with using what I had on the k&n filter - but going by the results it filters brilliantly!
Ah ok, are you going to try it back to back with and without? No doubt it filters well, but is it causing a restriction?
:thumbsup: for trying something different though!
+rep
yeh I mean I guess the more filters you add the more you're trying to stop the air, so yes, I'd say there most likely is some added restriction.
thanks for the rep :D
And a couple of more jobs this afternoon - been a very productive day! :D
* Cleaned up OEM springs and put them in their home (ready for someone to buy!)
http://i1132.photobucket.com/albums/...C01470edit.jpg
* Refurbished Mugen badges removing built up polish around the letters - came up like new!

gunna take off front bar tomorrow, reallign panels and heat gun the bumper, see if i can get it somewhat back in place.. hope chassis isn't deformed.
long story but will explain for my brotatoes
last night (around 8o'clock) went to my cousins christmas party in kirribilli - an hour from where i live, we got lost and ended up going back and forth from north syd to city about 3 times, i was stressed out of my mind coz i had a full car and my sister was backseat driving which made things worst.. was trying to find the house in the backstreets of kirribilli where i didnt know, was quiet, and i was stopped on a speed hump looking for the house, car came up behind me and there and was stressing out as there was no where to pull into for it to pass like i was getting yelled at to do haha, so i took a turn to the right, where i didn't notice a median strip with a short arrow sign on it was randomly in the middle of the road; it was blocked out by my mirror and front right column..
there was like no street lights and after i hit it this old knt came out of his house and wouldnt stop staring at his car, i told him to take a fking photo if he wants to have a good stare.. fking phaggot just made me even more mad considering i had my first ding
just glad no one got hurt
not entirely my fault, but its not entirely anyone elses. just stress + unknown backstreets and unsuspecting median strips.. feltbadman.jpeg
inb4tldr
opened the hood to have a look what's going on, no radiator or internal damages, temperature stays normal and car is fine, if i can't fix it myself i'll just buy an ej8 bar
Ej8 bar won't fit your car man
just lifted my wing lol..
heres diy HAHA

Got my door mound, mirrors, handles painted today and a front lip ;D
nothing special, just a tow hook

I notice a lot of P platers have tow hooks.
If your a Honda boy you got to have one atleast once in your life
Well this isn't so much what have I done to my ek *today* more like over the last 3 weeks... but I digress.
First was hardrace rear camber arms and f7 LCAs. Still gotta go to a bolt shop tomorrow and get some longer bolts for the subframe..damn trade shops how dare they take extended holidays...
Next was new koni yellows and gc sleeves. They're in but I haven't set the ride height just yet.
I also found something strange when I took off the front passenger wheel...shitloads of grease everywhere. Outer CV boot was trashed. So I had to replace that which was an effort to say the least.I used the 'keep everything connected and make my own cv cone tool trick'. It worked but holy damn do my hands hurt. Aaaannddd then I checked the other side to find it was cracked but not yet destroyed, but I decided to replace it anyway. Then to top it off I found the drivers side steering rack boot is effed too. Dunno if i can be bothered doing it just now, even though its not a big job.
Wednesday afternoon I'm going down to bob Jane to get an alignment and have my new enkeis put on. I'll post pics of everything after then - assuming all goes to plan that is.
what's more likely to stuff up?
a speed sensor or the cable that makes the speedo work?
Its the new fade....Quote:

might aswell do the rack boot before the alignment because u will need a alignemnt after u change it since the tie rod has to come off.Quote:
