Default Si Vs. LS

What is the difference between the LS caliper/rotor combo and the Si Caliper/rotor combo... I mean is one better than another and what would be the benifits of Ls brakes on a Civic Si

If you mean 99-00 Si, then they are the same size as the Teg LS.

Wrong, only the 90-91 CRX Si had rear disc brakes.

you will notice a improvement on braking IF you get the brake booster and cylinder from teh integra as well otherwise it will be a minor improvement... i have all 4 discs from a 93 LS... i didnt notice a big difference till i got the booster and cylinder from a 92 LS... u get some looks if you have all 4 discs...

In that case, the front Teg brakes are bigger than the 89 Si brakes. Just swap out the whole front brakes but use your stock upper arms.
