'03 ACCORD: rear rotors Q? i bought an NBP '03 ACCORD v6 coupe last month since i totaled my 2k1 CIVIC in NOV. i still like to visit this forum cause its the best. well my question is...my car comes wid rear diskz in tha back. since the front rotors are bigger i was wondering if it was possible that i could buy a set of front rotors and calipers and just bolt them in with little or no modding? will i run into any problems like having to add more brake fluid into the master cyclinder to be able to cover the extra rotor surface? might sound like a dumb question but it just came to mind as a cheap upgrade since there is nothing really out. any info is appreciated. thanx

The brake balance will be off... the reason they're different sizes is to balance the braking force and keep the car steady. It you got aftermarket rotors, there would be a front and a back, most likely in the same size proportion. Just wait... I'm sure there will be parts out for the V6 Accord since some are considering it the replacement Prelude.
