Default brake gurus!

hey guys, i was wondering if it's possible to make evo brembo brakes to a civic? It would be nice to run some brembo's on my car, and i can find them much easier than type r brakes. has anyone done it before?

Its possible but you have to figure out some sort of a braket and run a bigger disc. The Evo Brembo caliper is made to take a 32mm (1.25") thick disc and works on discs from about 300mm to ~330.

The only issue I see with that is taht its such a massive and heavy caliper and the disc will be so much bigger that really the only think you're going to do is add unsprung weight and moment of inertia to your system.

If you want Brembo calipers I would check into the 350Z or the some older Porsche turbo calipers.

I have some Turbo calipers in my garage that I could sell cheap.
