Default alignment question....

if i get my 92 hatch aligned today, and lets say a month or two later i get integra front spindles. Will taking out and replacing the brakes throw off my alignment cause of the incresed sized rotor?

no the size of the rotors will not affect the alinement at all. But i have accually heard that if you get increased sized rotors you will accually loose HP at the wheels because of the larger enersha

it shouldn't affect your alignment. your toe is adjusted at the tie rods, so just make sure the tie rods don't get turned.

inertia...

yes, you will need to re-align, tie rod ends are attached to spindles so you will have to undo them to swap.

I am putting GSR brakes in now too, gonna get alignment done next week
