Rear disc brake upgrade
 

We all know the 11" big brake upgrade for the front (ITR/Accord wagon calipers + Prelude VTEC rotors)
So how bout the rear?
Has anyone used Prelude 10 7/32" rear rotors on a Civic/Integra?
I'm guessing you'd have to get the proper caliper bracket for this to work or maybe modify the stock bracket.
It might be a little better than the 9 13/32" stock Civic/Integra rear rotor and help w/brake balance if you have the the 11" front upgrade.
Can this work? Anyone done it/tried it? Waste of time/money?

i'm pritty sure, it will cost a lot

if you want, my buddy EK Racer is selling his big rear disk brake upgrade

Well, lemme know how much.
It's not something I NEED. But if I can do it myself at a reasonable price then I will.
The thing is I don't want a kit where you have to special order replacement parts n stuff.
I like the fact that I can just go down the street and pick up pads and rotors or a caliper, hose,cable, etc. for the poor mans 11" brake upgrade.
You see what I'm saying, right?

There are a few different kits available from FastBrakes, but you could even make your own if you know what is needed.

Yea iam looking for that list of make your own.

Use the Fastbrake site as a guide or check on H-T. There are threads on there about using NSX parts.

In a nutshell:

Calipers/Brackets:
ITR or Prelude VTEC 92-96 for sure, but I think up to '01 they are all the same, or Accord Wagon 91-96 I think(can't remember the correct years)
OR even Legend Coupe/GS sedan , NSX (91-96) 2 piston calipers work too w/ a little more modification to the bracket or something.

Pads:
ITR, Lude, Accord Wagon all share same pad.

Rotors:
92-96 Prelude VTEC redrilled to 4x100 pattern or VW Corrado G60 rotors (no drilling cuz it's alredy 4x100 and 11")

Master Cylinder:
Seems to be a shady area. Depends who you ask. Some say the 13/16 is fine, some say you need 15/16.

Rims:
Min. 15"

Steering Knuckle:
On HT some say you need the knuckle from a car that came w/10.2" brakes up front and some never mention anything at all. I don't think it's mentioned on the Fastbrakes site either. You may have to do some more research here.


That's about it I think.
