Default Bigger brakes?

I currently have a 93 CX with stock brakes. . .i plan on putting a bigger engine in by winter. . .my stock brakes/rotors need to be serviced. . .my local shop says that I should upgrade to BREMBO slotted rotors in front with stainless lines and new pads. . .I've read that I really won't need the bigger brakes for everyday driving. . .any advice

should i go with brake upgrade. . .or should I save the money and just replace and resurface the stock brakes?

Thanks

up to you really, i'd say since you do need a brake job might as well upgrade. You might not need all the stuff he mentioned, maybe just integra brake rotors, calipers, pads and the misc stuff(whatever works i guess).

If I do decide to replace my stock brakes, what year Integra Brakes/Rotors should I replace them with?

you should be more then happy with an integra brake upgrade.
you can use from any integ 94 and up.

If the front, you will need to swap the spindles and hub assembly that will have the rotors and calipers

What can I expect to pay for this setup. . .and should I go ahead and replace the integra rotors with slotted ones. . .or should i keep everything stock? Do I need to add steel braided lines?
