i have a 94 del sol with gsr swap and ima be turboing soon ima tune it till it hit 300 whp and then stop but that much power i need some stopping power and i cant figure out what to get to fit my wheels "gsr blades" there 15's for those who dont know... i was thinking brembo blanks with hawk pads and mayb just new OEM calipers and master cylinder? anyone have any better ideas ive searched a lot for a kit that will fit

 

try getting some aftermarket 15s so you have some clearance to get a big brake kit if youre looking for good braking power..

 

i said to fit the gsr blades not an aftermarket wheel... im not changing wheels

 

get del sol VTEC's brakes. They are bigger, same a GSR brakes. The ultimate for OEM would be ITR, obviously but u'd need the lug conversion.

wow..youre looking to get 300whp and stick with oem type brakes? good luck lol

 

no i dont want to stick with oem type brakes y do u think i even posted this... i want to upgrade them... ur the typical honda-techer thats for sure cant u offer advice to what i asked and not just tell me to change wheels... if u dont know a good brake upgrade just dont say anything at all.....

are the calipers for del sol vtec different than the si's? would they bolt right up?

 

OP, be nice to RARE_EG2. You should appologize for being rude.....you have much to learn from him, sir.


Anyways, yes the del sol VTEC brakes will bolt right up in the brackets, unlike if you were doing a Legend brake conversion. Get Hawk HPS pads with brembo blanks. You should be happy with that.

 

changing your wheels would improve your braking, since a wider tire does offer a wider contact patch, thus helping you stop.

 

i know who rare eg2 his car is amazing so im not doubt what he knows but he wasnt answering my question lol

i saw h-tech has a dealer selling brembo blanks and hawk pads as a combo but i didnt know that the del sol vtec calipers are actually bigger... i heard i could also do a integra RS brake master cylinder is that right?

 

i was told that i can fit 205's on the gsr blades... so im def going to do that theres 195's on there now though

make sure it doesnt rub on the fenders tho........the master cylinder on the del sol VTEC is also bigger. Just get the whole braking system off a GSR or Del Sol VTEC with the combo i told you about. It works great and won't break the bank.

 

and dont forget about the braided lines. To go along with all the stuff deadend9009 said.

 

thanks gents

 

the car still weighs the same, you dont need more braking power just because you make more hp...

anyways...
If I read correctly, you have an si model, so you should have 10" rotors, and the same caliper mounts as any integra 94+ or civic ex/si.

Just bolt on a set of integra calipers (gsr isnt special)...theyre not quite the same as del sol vtec (i beleive the teg calipers are larger)

Better pads, better tires will get you better braking than just changing parts.

Teg and sol vtec calipers will go on, as well as a teg 15/16 or 1" master cylinder and b.booster

If you want more info, please search, this has been covered....many, many times.

If you really want some stopping power, quit being stubborn and go with a 15" wheel so you can have more clearance for some bigger brakes. OEM is nice and all, but it doesn't compare to an aftermarket performance brakekit.

 

im looking it up now and the del sol vtec calipers or with abs the si ones are w/o abs does that matter?

This makes no sense at all. More horsepower = more speed at the end of a straight with means you need more brakes to slow you down/prevent fade

As stated before del Sol VTEC/GSR brake size is the biggest you can get with out changing rims.

Brembo Blanks or CrossDrilled/Slotted, up to you.
EBC Green stuff or Hawk pads
SS Lines
High temp Brake fluid

 

...are we specifically talking about silly drag racing?
because other than that, it makes perfect sense

 

daily driving and 1/4 mile at the drag strip thats all... im not autocrossing...

In that case keep your stock brakes and get good pads and SS lines. You wont notice much of a difference going to a bigger rotor.
