brake upgrade: the actual difference from dx:ex spindle
Trying to understand the actual difference from the dx to ex spindle for a brake upgrade.
I want to build a oem big brake setup on my 2000 lx/abs and drop off the spindle for the shop to install...
can't seem to find why the dx/lx and ex are different, is it the mounting of the caliper, the thickness of the brake mount?

dx/lx are setup for the small caliper/rotor ex/si is for the larger caliper/rotor and you can adapt integra, ITR, CTR, NSX, S2000 calipers with zero modifications to mild modifications. There is also a brake/suspension forum I suggest searching.

The biggest difference is the location of the caliper mounting ears. An EX/Si/Integra caliper won't bolt up to a CX/DX/non-abs LX knuckle
