The proportioning valve isnt what gives you more stopping power. It just distributes the fluid the way Honda designed it. People might read your post and go put a prop. valve from a vehicle with rear discs on their drum equipped car and have major issues.

Bigger rotors = more resistance to fade. That's about it. You can make your car stop in just as short of a distance whether you use Si brakes or DA brakes. Most people don't ever build a complete system that is actually engineered. They think bigger rotors = better stopping power.

Ok, so since we're sorta on the idea of ricky's old crx, looking good, albeit those photos blow chunks I'm in the same boat sort-of as he was. I've had ef's for how long? Since age 15, I'm now 22. Once I graduate school I'm considering selling my crx.
Reasons:
I will be able to afford something newer, comfortably.
I've honestly grown more towards enjoying a car, not so much tinkering with the car for hours upon end. No time, no desire, no place to work, etc.
Crx I have could use a new motor, the rings are probably shot and I just don't see dropping thousands into a baller swap. I'd rather someone else take it over while it's still nice and really enjoy it.
I'm in a "i don't know where i'm moving to and my car is small as hell" mode.
So I don't know my next step. I've had people comment they'd love to buy it, ef lovers and general people alike. I'd rather pass this onto someone who cares a lot about ef's.

The y49 curse has escaped me...so far... It's a fun car, but ehh....the 07 si sedan is looking more sexy.

also with bigger rotors they don't get hot as fast as a smaller rotor would with heavy breaking

OMG this **** is wayyyyyyyy too confusing. Plus you guys are talking DA axles AKA B-series. I'm running a DOHC ZC (stock DX axles). I think I might just upgrade the pads, rotors, and get some SS lines Now, what are some good pads that won't dust alot and have bite? I've always been a fan of OEM pads with Brembo blanks but I'm gonna be running white Panasports sooooooooo anyone know of any other pad suggestions?

I've always wanted to believe that SS lines are worth what they cost, but I've never seen the need.
