Default Rear brake question.

I have a 93' CX with drums. As most of you should know that. Anyways, I have a chance to buy front and rear brakes off a 95' Si for $100. Are the front Si brakes bigger than the CX front brakes. I have cross drilled rotors on the front and I don't want to get rid of them if they are the same size. If they are the same size I'm just gonna try to buy the rears.

Thanks! Corey

95 Si's have bigger front brakes, but you will need the steering knuckles to fit the calipers and rotors. The calipers are the Nissin calipers, as opposed to the Akebono calipers on the CX, and they have different mounting points for the caliper.

Buy both front and back. They are bigger and better. Just make sure you get the whole assembly. The knuckle and everything attached in front. The trailing arm and everything attached in the rear.

If the steering knuckles and rear trailing arms aren't there, would it still be worth buying for $100? I could always find that stuff later of just buy them new couldn't I? Or would it be too expensive?

Thanks
