Testing waters on my OEM big brake kit:


1992 Legend calipers & 23T bracket for sale = $75
Comes with caliper bolt/pin set.
These are used but have been tested and work perfectly fine on my wife's 2001 CRV.

Price comparison at Autozone:
$7.00 - caliper bolt/pin
$94.99 - $52.99 each with $42.00 core credit ($94.99 no core credit)
$41.00 - each caliper bracket
Total = $202 with core credit ($285 with out core credit)


Again, I'm only selling them for $75.
You'll need new pads & rotors. I have them but rather not sell them because they can be purchased new for less that cost of shipping. LOL


Additional Info:
ITR, Legend, Vigor, CRV, Accord Wagon, V6 accord, H22 prelude = all have 1 7 C L 1 5 V N.
These have a 57mm piston and take larger brake pads than the common Civic, Integra 16CL14VN piston (53mm piston).

Install on 88-00 civic non ex knuckle (will not work with HF knuckles):
1) Cannot keep 9.4" stock civic rotors. So upgrade from 9.4" rotors to 10.4" rotors. (Cannot use 11.1" rotors)
There are 2 ways to install the ITR calipers onto the 10.4 rotor.
A) Place washer in between hub & back side of rotor. Find 2mm flat washer that had 12.5mm(1/2") open diameter to slide over each wheel stud.
or
B) Take the 23T caliper bracket and mill off 2.5mm off the INSIDE of the bracket.

Install on Civic EX, EM1, All Integra (non ITR):
You can keep stock 10.4" rotors OR upgrade to 11.1" redrilled prelude vtec rotors.
Install choices is the same as A/B (above)


In each EF/EG/Integra FAQ form there are links to several of h-tech mebers how have done this. I've done the reasearch already and and spoken to many longtime members on the roadracing forms who have this same setup on their EF/EG/EK/DA/DC with no problems with unevel brake pad fade, unwanted viberation. What has happened is they are able to brake much later/deeper into the apex of turns.

I have many vouches & transactions on honda-tech.
I take paypal or MO.

just some more info:


Well depends on what you call big brake.


All civic (non si/ex) have smallest calipers with 53mm piston
A pair of calipers with bracket is 15lbs.



Civic ex/si & all Integras (non ITR) have larger 57mm piston
A pair of calipers with brackets is 18lbs.



ITR/Legend calipers have 57mm piston but larger pad sweeping area.
A pair of calipers is 28lbs.



NSX/94-95 Legend GS have 2 smaller piston, but share the identical brake pad surface as ITR calipers. I have not weight them yet. but fairly sure they are about the same as reg Legend/ITR calipers.



If you had 1 civic calipers in one hand and ITR calipers in the other... your hand is definatly going to notice the 6.5lb difference.... lol


Also your going to be very suprized how hard your neck is going to snap forward during hard braking. I have a ef with gsr, nothing fancy but I can't count how many times i've easliy locked up by 14' hx rims with falken new falken tires. It happens with not very much effort.

At the track, swapped civics already have the disadvantage of lower displacement. It can be even more stressful at the track when your not able to enter into a corner as fast due to not being able to stop in a short distance like other cars which weigh even more.

For most Integra calipers will do, but for many honda guys at the track ITR calipers with good pads are the min.

Thanks!
Anyone who's bought anything from me over the years know I always price items very low compared to the market.
