Default Brake Swap Question

Ok, now I got a serious question for you guys. Im thinking of converting my Civic to 4 wheel disc with larger rotors....should I go with the ITR 5 lug swap or just swap the rear to GSR discs and put in larger aftermarket rotors? Do they make oversize OEM quality front and rear GSR rotors that are about a large as the ITR?

I put 2000 Civic Si brakes with a GSR booster and Master Cylinder in my 92 hatch.
All for about $400 + a bottle of brake fluid and $30 in brake line tools.
Email me if you have any questions: timekilling@hotmail.com

I did not as the hatch is an Si, I believe its 40/30, I'll check tonight if you need me too. Also, $400 was for all four corners with the booster + MC.

This didnt work at first because I installed the front calipers with the brake bleed nipple down - make sure its UP! Pedal give about an inch before slowly grabbing, cant put the pedal on the floor, the car STOPs now.
