Default Brake Rotors

Are the integra LS/GS brake rotors the same for the del sol( any or all years?) ??
I want to upgrade the brakes on a 93 del sol to drilled rotors, but am thinking of going bigger ?

dont get drilled.....they can crack and cause total brake failure. The del sol VTEC uses bigger brakes than all civics and del sols 92-95.

Measure them, most Del Sols did not come with the bigger brakes up front which I assume is the one you have. If not why not upgrade to a whole GSR front setup?

i believe the vtec del sol's (B16) are the same size. if you want to have better brakes, you can always get better pads and rotors. cross drilled rotors are a waste (IMO) and cause brake failure if they crack.

My Del Sol VTEC's brake rotors did NOT fit my brothers 92 SI. They are a tad bigger. Same for the pads. The brakes are bigger ONLY on the Del Sol VTEC.

90-01 Integra = 10.3"
94-97 Del Sol VTEC = 10.3"
93-97 Del Sol S/Si = 9.5"
92-95 Civic Si = 9.5"
94-95 Civic Si ABS = 10.3"
92-95 Civic EX = 10.3"

Damn, then why do all the people wanna do integra or GSR rear disc brake conversions when they can just take out of a 92-95 civic EX which are definately common enough?

'Cause I thought all 'teg rotars were the same...which would mean if 90-'01 'teg LS is 10.3"...then the GSR disc swaps are 10.3"....or am I wrong someplace?

The Integra calipers pistons are slightly larger than the EX. But the EX ABS calipers are the same as Integra calipers.

Oh, I see.

So in essence doing a GSR rear disc conversion is the same as doing a rear disc conversion from a ABS EX?

Pretty much all rear discs from 90-01 Intergra, 93-97 Del Sol Si/VTEC, 99-00 Civic Si, and 92-95 Civic Si/EX ABS are the same. Which means, you can buy pads for anyone of them because they all use the same calipers. The only difference though for 90-93 Integra trailing arms is the larger bushings.
