Well the next round of upgrades on my 4g are the brakes. i just read that long post on the v6 brake upgrade, and printed all 33 pages of it.

I plan to use either the wagon or v6 calipers in the front with brembo blanks, and probably EBR pads. I think i might as well go with the SS brake lines while its all apart too. However, i am going to do a drum to disc conversion in the rear, using 5g accord EX discs, calipers, and trailing arms. I will just get the whole assembly from the junkyard.

My question is, when changing all this stuff out, should i be concerned with swapping out the power brake booster or proportioning valve or anything else in the brake system? I want to be sure i get ALL the parts i need before i begin so it doesn't turn into a month long project like so many others have.

No.

Cream cheese.

 

do you have the link to the post on the v6 brake upgrade?

 

I did the wagon caliper swap on my 92 EX last summer and it went fairly well. I am in WI so most of my stuff was rusted solid, so I ended having to replace the wheel bearings too. I actually had to have them pressed out of the knuckle, and by that time, they are junk. So know where you can get new ones if it comes down to that. The bearings were $50 a side.

Other than that - decide if you really need the dust shields (i didn't bother buying the Wagon ones). I didn't change anything else except the calipers, caliper brackets, rotors, and pads.

 

thanks.

i don't think i will have that problem, but i have an extra bearing if i do.
