Default GSR - Accord - Legend brake swap for my EG hatch?

I'v don't all the research and I still can't find some kind of comparison of all 3. I just dropped over $3000 into my suspension and now I'm tending to the brakes. OK so I'm replacing everything on this car. it's 93 dx hatch. i bought a 95 DC as a part car so every part on that car will be used if it's not being replaced with an after-market part. so i have the DC brakes and i was gona use them in my project but i'v came across some good threads about using 01 V6 accord and 95 duel legend caliper and bracket so what I'm getting out of my research is that the accord caliper is better then the GSR caliper because it's bigger and you use a 11" rotor. now same goes for a legend caliper but it's a duel caliper, but in one caliper it's not an even distribution on pressure because each piston has a diff pressure, it's like 40 in the leading edge and 36 in the trailing edge. not sure but something like that. so what sure i use GSR - Accord - Legend? thx for the help

I have teg brakes on one car and the legend setup on the other... Either way, you need to swap to the teg knuckles....
Go with the teg stuff unless you like run around time.
The legend rotors require hub centric rings (smaller hub on the civic/teg) and redrilling holes. You can get away without the ring if you have a machine shop drill them precisely....
The teg setup is just a lot less hassle. Yeah, it doesn't stop as well, but it's still damn good.
