Default *****my rear disc conversion***** (56k get lated)

more pics on page dos

ok i have a 92 civic dx 4door. i've been running drum brakes for a while now so i thought i'd upgrade. w/ help from my homie tim this **** was a walk in the park.
1st i bought some gsr brakes (front/rear) from my homie ekfour. then i got some new brembo rotors from my other homie spooneg. then i got some custom stainless steel braided lines w/ teflon coating from this custom hose/fitting shop in my area. results
before


after
















i still got some more to post but you get the idea

i got mine with mugen bushings all for $200 including the Lower control arms off an integra (not sure if it was a gsr). just keep looking...

by the way, don't always look to the classifieds on honda-tech. i see some ******* ridiculous asking prices. and i never new what low-balling was until i registered.

looks good, you might want to get new screws that hold the rotors on. yours looked a little beat (maybe i saw it wrong). theyre like 60 cents at honda and less likely to strip when you change the discs in the future

did you replace the main trailing arm bushings before installing them? Might as well since they are off the car.

Nice clean up, more info on the cleaning part? Howd you clean the calipers?
Sounds cool tho. Any tech you wanna mention?

P.S. Those are the ugliest rotors I have ever seen.

i never said they were special. i said they were gsr. my friend and i cleaned them up real nice and slapped brembos on them. we used power clean aka purple power to clean the rear arms and we resprayed the front arms flat black. calipers were still in mint gold condition.

I think we need 10 more side shots of the same thing and a few more closeups.


Anyway, looks good.

Looks good youll be happy with the better stopping power. If you need 15/16" master cylinder or 4040 prop valve I have them for sale.
