i need as many before and after legend calipers swap comments and opinions about performance...is stopping power twice as strong? and so forth...will be doing the swap in another week or two, i have 95 ex v6 with crossed drilled on all four rotors and ebc brake pads....thanx

 

they are upside down on accords meaning they dont work as well as they do ont eh legend. its good for bling factor though, the nsx or accord wagon/v6 calpiers are a better match.

you can put them on right side up, but you will have to bleed with the caliper off of the car. not hard, and retains the design effectiveness

 

i have the legend callipers with g3000 rotors (from cobalt friction) and axxis ultimate pads and whatever fluid cobalt friction sells as well and the stopping power is much better...it isn't brembo good, but it definitely stops much shorter and with less pedal effort...and, if for any reason you get in a jam, they don't seem to lock up nearly as fast...although, that could be b/c i am also using pirelli pzero nero tires as well...eh, they are a great upgrade for the price, and i definitely recomend them!

 

hey nick i have to ask u a very important question...do i need to shim some of the calipers off since i'm moving from 1 piston to 2 piston to fit inside wheel and rotor because i talked to my mechanic and he said that we might have to do that in order for it to fit....Was ur installation just a bolt on or did u had to do something extra????

 

they fit fine behind the stock wheels.

it was all just a bolt on...i am using aftermarket 17" wheels with a 40mm offset, and have no problems...but i know of at least a few people using oem wheels who have no trouble at all in terms of fitment...
