Default Question about NSX / Legend Calipers ...

I have a quick question for those of you who have put these on and replaced your stock calipers.

Do your pedals feel a little more mushier due to larger surface area of calipers?
Did you chagne your master cylinder (to Legened/NSX ones) to accomodate the larger calipers?

Just wondering if I would have to get a Legend M/C since I have Legend calipers and they feel mushier. I dont think its the brakelines.

should get the ITR or any other integra booster and MC..the ITR sould be better since you dont have to cut and flare the brake hardline. also make sure that u bled the brake system well.

not true. on the ITR MC you DO have to make 1 new hardline. the teg LS 15/16" fits without mods. i did this swap on my EJand the pedal was a bit softer duw to the increase in piston surface area. i only used the LS MC, helped a bit. i will add that to me, the pedal is very easy to modulate, which is a plus since i do not have ABS. all in all a VERY worthwhile upgrade for VERY little $$.
