Big Brakes
I am going to do the rotor over hub conversion and the gs dual piston in my 1994 accord lx. I have read in the forum that you can use accord v6 or prelude v-tech oem rotors that are 11.2 inches. My question is this can i use Power slot rotors that are 12.19 for the prelude v-tech if so do i need to modify anything or not. Your input will be really appreciated

It's V-TEC.... not "v-tech"....
You need to check what are the part numbers for the rotors/hub for both prelude and accord to get the right answer, maybe someone could get you a link to confirm that.

Re: Big Brakes (Bruce Banner)
if im not mistaken youd have to get bigger calipers also...if your going to get a big brake setup...get a full brembo or wilwood or something..it will cost a lot of money but will be worth it im sure...i know for a fact if you did the 12.19 or w/e rotors then youd have to get bigger wheels that is if you have 15's..16's might fit

Re: Big Brakes (TAINO)
you can use the 95-97 AV6 rotors with the dual piston legend calipers but I'm pretty sure the Prelude VTEC rotors are rotor-over-hub design so you would have to do the rotor-over-hub conversion as well if you want those rotors.
If you went with an even larger rotor then you would have to come up with a caliper bracket that'll put the caliper in the right position cause the stock caliper bracket on the dual piston legends are for an 11.2" rotor I believe.
Fastbrakes also makes a big brake kit for the Accords.
The 11.2" rotor and calipers will fit under a stock 15" rim but anything bigger will require a larger rim.
