Default New brake kit for the CRX/Civic...

I've redesiged the 11" kit so it can use the stock calipers. Now all you need to change is the rotor and put on the new adapter bracket. I've been able to reduce the costs since you don't need the Integra calipers. The entire package with rotors is only $240 retail, $215 for H-T members. Available on Oct 15.

are the rotors blanks, cross-drilled, or slotted?

Is the stock caliper up to the task? I really don't know a whole lot about brakes, but is it wise to go with a larger caliper for a larger rotor?

With the Integra caliper,OEM 15" from Honda,there is no problem.


I've got the 99-00 Si wheels on my car.

90-01 teg calipers i believe
teg calipers are all single piston


go to www.fastbrakes.com
there is also the 4-piston kit using (lightweight) wilwood calipers

Brian, is there a HT discount for the kit with the Wilwood calipers? Think that I finally settled on this as my choice.

Thanks.

Or just call Brian.
He is a nice guy.He took the time to explain everything you ask.

Also,he was kind of patient since I'm a french canadian and my english is kind of fuzzy on the phone....can you say nervous....

Anyway,for the price,the kit is amazing.Even on track day.
All the people I know are aware of this.A lot of them would love to have one.

I think I was the first one in Qc with Fastbrakes kit.

i wonder if that now that you keep the si calipers, can you use a stock 14 inch wheel?? or is it still 15's?

(in case no one else saw, you DON'T need the teg calipers!)

The 11" kit requires 15" wheels(stock GSR wheels fit fine).

The kit comes with blank rotors, slotted OR drilled are $100 option, slotted and drilled $135 option. EBC greens or Axxis Ultimate pads are $64.

The H-T discount price for the 4 piston kit is $650(retail is now $725).

For Honda Challenge cost e mail me.

I got the integra caliper with slotted rotor kit from Brian. I am very happy with it. I wish I told him I was a H-T member though, I didn't know we got a discount

The HF caliper MAY work, but I haven't test fitted them with this rotor, only the DX/Si calipers...

Do you have any photos of the 10.2 4-piston kit? Installed or not is fine.
