Stick those in the box with the O2 sensor and send them my way. I'll pay shipping! I'm curious to hear how the adjustable front arms will work. It's nice that someone reputable is finally making some, aside from Vision.

Re: (civicandy)
Damn, you guys are making me jealous with all the upgrades going on. All my funds right now are going into the House.
But come summer, I get to play some more. 949Racing 15x8's, and some swappage after the EF meet and some other bits and pieces.
RYwire, what made you decide to get rid of the rnr's? clearance issues? I wanted to pick up a set, but for what I have intended with the crx, the 949's make more sense.

It's the calipers and dog-bone brackets. You simply use vato zone corrado 11" rotors. Oh, and you need different brake lines for the wilwoods as well.

Dayum. You planning on rolling fenders and running 225/45's all the way around?

I had the rnr's for a couple years, you have to change it up...
I dunno about how much better its gunna be... ask nick rps, im sure the tires and pads are going to be the noticeable part!
Here is why I got the wilwood... the race pads for the teggy calipers were 145 for the set, the willwood was 55 to 65... The calipers are like 105 each, the lines are cheap especially if you make them yourself, the brackets are cheap. So ya, its going to pay for itself with pads! Ezr to change too. Just pull the pin, slide the pad in!
Oh ya, and my crx is kinda a show car too, so ya...

quick question guys. I have both a set of HX wheels and 92-95 steelies, and the question I have is this:
Is there a width difference between the two. I was just wanting to run 195/60/R14's on the hx's if possible. Thanks for the help.

That skunk2 kit looks to be the **** </TD></TR></TABLE>
I wish I could tell you, but I switched to race pads and r*compounds at the same time I installed the Wilwoods. All three of those items made for CRAZY stopping power. If you run race pads and r*compounds with stock calipers you'll still have great stopping power, the wilwoods just have the benefit of more clamping force, MUCH cheaper pad selection, and ease of changing pads.
Like Ryan said, you pull the pin, pull the street pads out, slip in race pads, and replace pin. It's that easy!

Yeah, that's the plan.
Actually, I'm already rolled, I had to do the rears cause of my RB's, they're 30 offset. So I figure since it's already done, might as well benefit with better contact patch than my current 195/50/15's - plus in a stickier compound.
Plus i'll be adding my rear sway, NS front strut bar, replacing the rear trailing arm bushings with spherical and hope fully getting a roll bar installed. I hoping to do that stuff first while I have the D16 in it still so I can play with it a bit, then I'll do my B swap.
