4 Wheel Disc On The Non Ex And Si Models

Just For Those Of You Who May Be Interested, I Work For A Honda Dealer I Have An 06 Coupe, You Can Order The Necessary Parts To Convert Your Rear Drums To 4 Wheel Disc, Very Simple To Costly, It Will Be In The Very Near Future For My 2dr Lx 5-speed!

I wish I could do that on my 06 LX, but I have a feeling it won't be cheap!

Honestly Ill Get It For Pretty Cheap Working For The Dealer But I Think For Someone To Pay Normal Cost Your Probably Looking At Around 6-800 Bux, Which Isnt Really That Bad, Especially If You Plan To Auto Cross At All

For $600-$800 you might have well bought the EX instead LX.

But If You Baught An Ex Instead Of An Lx, You Would Be Paying Almost 2 Grand More, And An Ex Is Almost 500 Lbs More Than An Lx, Which If You Intend On Racing Thats Not A Good Thing, Especially Since It Aint Like The Old Days And The Lx Has As Much Beef As An Ex

if you're tryin' to justify the cost, just wait until you need brakes done... that'll take off about a hundred bucks... 'cause it'll come w/ new pads and such and voila brake job done... also i believe most new cars say you're supposed to change the brake FLUID (i thought it was odd but i did it anyway on my subaru) at 60k...... which you would have to do if you converted the rear brakes... so all in all if you do the swap at 60k you'd be saving about 150-200 bucks on maintainance if you were to normally have it professionally done.....

hahaha well NORMALLY shoes are cheaper than pads but who knows.. we're going into an age where manual transmissions are getting to cost extra over the automatics which is rediculous... so who knows maybe pads are cheaper for thiese cars
