About the Brakes, should you upgarde the lines i didn't see in the post before if that was answered or not. Would your recomend that you do this, and if so which ones? I dont have ABS will this effect anything, when doing this swap? Also any heads up or problems you will run into. thanks

 

You're going to find mixed opinions on this one... personally I find the OEM brake feel to be more than adequate, so I don't think it's worth it. However, other people will disagree with me...

 

If you got some Goodridge SS lines, you'll be fine.

 

has anyone tried using the legend lines??? or compared them to the stock accord ones? I'm wondering w/ them, would it be possible to run the calipers on the correct side (bleeder tip on the bottom side of caliper) instead of switched around (L-marked one on right side and vice versa).

 

I think using stock brakelines will require less much less maintenave than SS Brakelines.

If you upgraded to Legend calipers and pads, you will be good to go.

 

so when's your funeral going to be?

bleeder tips on the bottom is death. how the hell are you going to bleed you brakes properly?

when it comes to brakes don't **** around.

 

What type of maintenence to SS lines need?

 

I believe you have to watch for dirt and grit that gets caught by the hose ends. Seems to bulid up faster than stock lines.
Thats why it is best to clean the SS lines yearly whether you race or not.

 

clean how?

drop them in the dishawasher?

 

Scrubbing with a toothbrush works

 

how are the stock legend calipers oriented???

I was under the impression that the L side goes on the left side of the car and R goes on the right, stock setup that is. So that would put the bleeder tip on the bottom of the caliper on then stock legend if they are installed that way. I'm sure if thats the case there is a proceedure for bleeding them.

Those who do the caliper swap have put the calipers on reverse so the bleeder tip is on top.

 

the caliper is on the back of the wheel instead of the front, thus the bleeder is pointed up...
