GSR brakes are not unique. All '94-01 Integras (except Type-R) use the same calipers and rotors.

So 94 to 01 Tegs are all the same. Now some of the later year EGs have the same size rotors (ABS EGs i think) as the tegs.

Question is.. are the all the calipers the same? I was told my 92 civics brakes were swaped for GSRs. The rotor size is right but when I get new pads.. does it matter where the calipers came from? also.. is there any diffrence in pads ABS pads vs Non-ABS pads..

The calipers are different. If you brakes were from an Integra, order Integra pads. There is a difference between ABS and non-ABS, but for your car, it wouldn't matter. Just order either.

All '92-95 Civics with ABS (all 4dr-EX, some 2dr-EX, some 4dr-LX, some 3dr-Si) use the same rotors (10.3"f/9.5"r) and calipers (17CL14VN in front) as '94-01 Integras (except Type-R). '93-95 2dr-EX non-ABS used the Integra-sized 10.3" front rotors, but had different calipers, and had drums in the rear.

I'm not sure I would trust a writup from someone who put three-spokes on his/her car.

Mmmmmmmm three spokes.....

I'm 36...I seriously doubt it.

Besides, I was making light of the three spokes, not his technical writup ability.

But while we're on the subject of that....

Don't miss the fact that his second paragraph is completely incorrect. Disk brakes came on the Si, and at the time of his writup, they had been on the market for almost 7 years. (which obviously was at the hight of the three-spoke era)

The 2dr EX non-ABS caliper has a smaller piston and takes a different pad. The '94-97 del Sol VTEC shared the same caliper (16CL14VN), interestingly.
