Currently I am running Legend dual piston calipers in front and ITR calipers in the rear on my CRX VT (edm Sir). This is all with the stock 230v booster and 15/16" mbc. As pedal travel has increased quite a bit, I want to upgrade these components. I have been told the Integra booster/mbc combo will fit without any real problems. Wich would be a better choice for my setup?
The abs version with a 290v booster and 1"mbc or the non-abs version with the 1"mbc. A friend said to go with the 260v to keep more feeling in the brakepedal.
Just trying to get some more input on this as I am not sure what to choose. Anyone with some experience with this setup?

 

as a general rule of thumb, any bigger caliper should utilize a bigger master cylinder.

1" is what you ought to use.

Even on set ups with 9inch front rotors and drums, upgrading to a 15/16ths or 1" if they can find it/justify the cost, greatly increases pedal feel and inspires confidence (sometimes overconfidence ) on track.

 

I ran with 262mm brakediscs stock, and they already used the 15/16th, so I knew I have to upgrade to the 1" cylinder. My problem was not knowing for sure wether to go for a 260 or 290 brakebooster. Just took a guess and went with the 260 (also the only one available that was willing to ship to Europe )
Thanks for your input anyway

 

Bump for some more info!

 

I know I'm about 2 months late, but I'm planning on picking up some Legend calipers to go with my integra booster/mc.

it's a 1" off of a '94+ LS teg with ABS. I bought the Booster and the MC together for $25 at the junkyard!

Thats what I'd go with.
btw, what knucles are you useing with your Legend calipers?

 

I'm using the stock knuckles.... My car is a EDM VT, so the calipers are basically a bolt-on upgrade. (EDM VT is about the same as a Sir)

 

O/T, but how is that swap of yours coming together?
