5 lug and abs delete questions
ok so i have a 96 gsr sedan my abs module is broken so abs didnt work since i got it so i unplugged it and plan to get rid of the whole system but at the same time im also putting a 5 lug conversion on the car the car will see track use mostly circle track but some ppl have told me to upgrade my booster? i wanna eventually upgrade to nsx calipers will it brake good with my stock gsr booster? ik i have to get rs lines and a 40/40 prop valve is there anythign else i can do to improve braking?
ok thank you that was my major question cuz ppl kept telling me i needed to do that but i figured my car has it and my other ? is ive heard 98+ rs lines work onj 98+ gsr's but will they work on my 96 ? because that would help alot and what are your guys opions on ss lines? for brake lines
I'm not 100 on the lines as some master cylinders have ports in different places, they can be easily bent though and all the other lines should be fine. Stainless lines are good but if you meen running all stainless flex lines, I'm not a fan of that.
stainless lines only improve pedal feel. they don't improve stopping distance. now don't get me wrong I have them on my car and love the pedal feel but that is the only thing you are changing. braking distance won't change at all. also know that a car won't stop beyond what the tires will hold before losing traction. make sure you invest is a good set of tires otherwise all the brakes in the world won't help you stop any faster.
I am not an expert on this, but believe that the MC is the same for LS and GSR in '94-'97, and that is 15/16. I use this set up with NSX front and RSX rear and it work fine 15/16, and or 1". I upgraded to 1" MC, which is only aftermarket for my 95 and noticed little difference. I waited until mine needed to be replaced; it worked fine at 15/16. The brake piston size is such that the one in the stock caliper is larger area/volume than the two in the NSX. The 2 pistons and larger caliper, bracket, and rotor allow for a larger pad and the 2 pistons spread the load, instead of one in the center. The aftermarket 1" MC fits the booster from the 94-96 with the slanted or diagonal mount at the booster and the booster does not care whether 15/16" or 1" as long as the mount is right. Look here

That is the round reservoir '94-'97 with diagonal mount and rectangular reservoir and straight mount '98+. I think that is all correct, but I am sure that someone will correct it if not.
