V6 front brake calipers on 4 cylinder accord.
Can you install v6 fron calipers on a 4cylinder accord ? My car is a 98 4cyl accord and the parts car is a 99 6cylinder accord.

Is the caliper bigger? Are you just replacing it for fun or because your caliper is shot?
Any way it should work.

Re: (Tx_Accord98)
after thinking about this, aren't the v6 calipers bigger than the 4 cyl? If so TX is right just do a 5lug swap. or get 1995 Prelude Vtec rotors for the front. 4x114 and they are 11.1". So if your running stock 14" they will not clear.
Wouldn't you also need a new caliper bracket? Oh but never-mind you have the v6 bracket avail.

Re: V6 front brake calipers on 4 cylinder accord.
Small update on the old thread.
In the end I used v6 calipers and brackets. And I bought 1996 VTEC prelude rotors which are 4 lug and arenthe same size as a 99-02 v6 accord.
everything was bolt on, no complications. I am even still running the oem 15in alloy wheels.
braking performance is superb compared to the 4cyl stuff.
i have less than 130$ In this upgrade.
have had it for a while and am very happy with it.
