I have an EG HB and have upgraded to prelude calipers with 282mm discs.

What I would like to know is:

Would a 4th/5th gen Prelude VTEC brake booster fit?

I'm pretty sure someone is going to tell me no, its just I have a MC from a Lude, and if the BB fits, i'll finally get the pressure i'm after!

TIA
Ron

 

u have any pics ? how did u get the preludes calipers on your eg? i'd love to see a pic of that

 

>pic from BrakeExpert FS thread

yes, the +97 prelude booster will work. if you look at the pic of the prelude m/c and compare it to +98 integra, they all share the same 1" mc & are identical specs of the itr mc. it bolts on to integra & ek civic. if you plan on using this on eg civic, you'll need to carefully bend the lines & reflare a line. you can also use a 90-91 civic ex 15/16" m/c. it's a bolt-on

*I'm sure I'm not the first guy to discover this mod, and I'm not trying to sound as though I came up with the idea. Another H-T member told me that they've heard of this mod, so I just took it further and actually ordered one at my shop and put it on a customer's 1993 CX to test it - it works.*

Well for all of you guys running 4-wheel discs and/or bigger front discs that need a bigger-than-stock 13/16ths M/C, there is a true bolt-in replacement for sure.

I heard a rumor that a certain 15/16ths m/c just bolted up, and it's true. I ordered one the other day and my shop put on ein a 1993 Cx hatch. It's a:

1991 Honda Civic EX 4-door master cylinder.

The part number from Honda is 46100-SH4-A11. They probably won't stock it, but it only took me one full day to get the one I ordered.

This m/c bolted right up to the stock Civic booster, so no more trying to find an Integra booster and m/c combo!

The only thing is that I cannot say which stops better - my Integra RS booster and m/c combo, or the 1991 EX with stock Civic booster because the CX we did the EX m/c on still had stock brakes to be upgraded with all Integra discs later.

The 1991 EX m/c is the same 15/16ths like my Integra Rs, but the ears are located the same as the stock Civic so there's no need for the Integra booster. the Integra booster is larger volume, but I've yet to determine if the Teg booster makes much difference over stock until,this CX guy gets his 4-wheel discs and 40/40 prop valve.

So if you want an easy m/c upgrade with no booster worries, try this one.</TD></TR></TABLE>

on the prelude calipers w/ 282mm rotors on your eg civic. i'm guessing your prelude caliper upgrade is the 17CL15VN caliper...which is also identical to the integra type-r calipers as well. just curious what knuckles are these on (dx, ex, teg)?
