are 5th gen prelude and 6th gen accord brakes/caliper's the same. 4 lug accord...im thinking no, but....in any case the accord ex 4cyl's brakes are 11.5", right?

 

brake upgrades = waste of $$$

 

Why do you say that?

 

b/c it is well know that when you go fast there is no reason to stop.

 

i dunno about you guys, but stopping IS important to me.... but then again thats just me.

on any brake upgrade

 

So you're saying that upgrading your brakes to make your car stop better is a waste of money.

 

i agree..... why waste the $$$ on brake ?? just drive safely (you can still go fast and safe !!)

 

I thought they were 10"?

prelude ones are at least 11", which would imply that they use larger calipers, 57mm vs 50mm... at least thats how 5th/4th gen accord/preludes compare.

5th gen Accord = 10" rotor, 50mm caliper piston
4th gen lude VTEC = 11" rotor, 57mm caliper piston

sizes are approx.

 

what happen if the other not drive safely?

HUH?

also he asked a simple question that he did not have the info for, not about specifically upgrading his brakes
