I know this subject has been up before so if anyone can provide the link to the forum that would be great, if not i just wanted to know exactly which parts i will need for this upgrade. i have about 185000 miles 94si and the same rotors, I am ready to change. What i do know is the following: correct me if i am wrong

Legend calipers w/ brake lines.. from which model, i don't know???
v-tech rotors

thanks everybody for the knowledge

 

i got a set of nsx calipers for sale if you interested.. not sure about legend brakes.. i used the nsx calipers and they work great.. let me know.. email me

 

VTEC rotors by the way, and calipers from 93-95 LS and 94-95 GS sedan, i used 95 legend calipers from the sedan from autozone. expect to get hit with a 50$ core charge , unles syou find them at the junkyard.

search in teh archives for "legend" in the prelude section. I have done this swap, if you need nay more info of any specific questions just track me down , but all the info you need is in the search.

^^^don't use the nsx ones (sorry dude) but they are over priced and i think the pistons on the legend ones are acutally bigger than the nsx? don't quote me i think i read that some where. i love my legend upgrade it stops HARD.

 

right on thanks for the quick response guys and for the link

 

how many of you legend guys didn't use a 5mm shim between the piston & the pad?

 

oh thanks for the term correction. i was debating between those two and thougt. well valve technology = VTECH.

correction VTEC. Coo..

 

just like to verify all the parts needed.
i can get the rotors no problem. just the caliper pieces from the legend i would like to verify and if there are anymore parts that are needed can you guys fill me in. Thanks [IMG][/IMG]

 

i don't know how to post a pic. so here is the link.

is this the only part i need for the conversion, other that the pads and brake line. thanks

 

JDM LUDE i didn't use a 5mm spacer but i often tare my lude down and check things over , so i just keep an eye on my pads, they key is that they don't get too low so you don't blow the piston out. will i eventually make a 5mm spacer, mmm maybe, do i need one now , no, does it stop like insane YES.

tony, the conversion is pretty easy, i have a 94 vtec, all i did was buy the calipers, and they bolted right on, if you have an si think you need the vtec rotors becasue they are thicker than the si . Im not sure if you need the vtec brackets ,

 

R rite thanks

 

if you have any specific Q i can help, either posthere or send me a PM
