So i just upgraded all 4 discs on my hatch. Now i was wondering what calipers i can use in the back that will look better with a 11in rotor. I have the stock SI calipers and they are very small. I have the 11in all the way around with brand new GSR front calipers, so will GSR rears work in the rear?

Thanks!


This is what im workin with..

Front


Rear


Lines and 40/40 Prop Valve

Why do you have the same size rotors all around? You're probably better off having a small caliper in the rear so you won't have too much braking force in the rear compared to the front. I'm assuming that you got aftermarket rotors with caliper relocation brackets..?

B-Well

dam, 11" in the rear.

a bit overkill.

leave the small calipers as fabrik8 said

don't wanna go around locking up the rears

I wouldnt mind using the rear caliper, but they are super small. Like it only contacts a little more than half of the rotor.

Fabrik8

Well, put smaller rotors on the rear then. If you want to put larger calipers on the rear, you're going to have to upgrade the front also unless you want a horribly unbalanced (and potentially dangerous) brake setup.

Well i have the brand new GSR front calipers and the kit came with brand new 92-95 Civic SI rear calipers. It just looks a little goofy, thats all.

So can i use the GSR rears? (they HAVE to be bigger than the 92 civic Si ones)

I dont see why you couldnt... It only makes sense that they would work if the fronts do.

just my .02 tho

Kana

I just wanna make sure before i go out and get and then find out they dont work. Thanks!
