I know there's no drum-to-disc brake conversion kit out for hour cars yet, but will the rsx hardware from it's rear disc brakes fit on are cars. What mods would i have to do to make them fit. I know that the 7thgen civc's are on the same plateform as the rsx.

or will the new Si's rear bakes be a better fit?

Does the 2002 Si have 4 lug nuts? I don't know off hand? Anyway, the RSX has 5 lug nuts, so you'll need the RSX's hub assembly and everything else. Shouldn't be hard. Shouldn't be that expensive either. Check out www.acuraautomotiveparts.net for parts and prices.

might want to check the AEM website about that rear disc conversion, from the looks of it to me there is one or its in the making

first, the new SI's may work, same lug patern and suspension, and second, and even easier id think.....get rear ACURA EL rear discs......they cant cost too much for either of those

though Acura EL, Civic SiR/Si and RSX rear discs may fit, do the discs provide a significant increase in stopping power? if they do, wouldn't they warrant replacing the front discs to match, also? IMO, our brakes are excellent as they are, though the drums ARE pretty [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG]

I don't think the Acura EL has different sized rotors in front. I'm almost sure the '02 Si doesn't have bigger rotors up front either. They're just cross-drilled. I'm not sure about the size of the RSX rotors in the front, but I think that they're the same size as well.

doesn't the RSX-S have big slotted rotors up front, though? that'd be

the 94-01 integra (gs/rs/ls/gsr) and the 92-00 civic ex/si all had the same 11" front discs and 9.5" rear discs...only the itr had larger 12.1" fronts that it shared with the accord wagon, accord v6s, and prelude vtecs
