I think I am going to buy them lol. I don't know how good of a deal that is, but if I were you and I though that I found a good deal I would not post it so someone could steal it from you.

I am not into the brake thing YET once I get a turbo and then build the engine to get around 300hp I will replace the damn back drums with disks and get good brakes on all 4 tires. I don't think that it would help much with my hp

this &gt; means that the willwood brakes are better than the Integra R brakes.

enough "(nuff) said."

i have the 13" willwood brakes kit on my CRX. they are much better than any Honda brakes will ever be.

Just make sure you got the tiny 9.44" rotors before you buy that kit, because it states that it's for this size application.

I've heard of several people at Willow Springs who have had Spoon Sports brakes and switched over to Wilwood brakes.

Wilwood brakes may not have seals on all their applications. On my Wilwood Superlites, there are none. However, I've had the kit on my car for 2 years, and there is absolutely no evidence of any leakage past the piston seals.
