jjcuff1 Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 i was wondering if anybody knew, with 16" wheels, the dohc vtech calipers and rotors would fit on the si model of 1997 del sol? i have 94S 9.4" disc front and drums rear.

JapaneseDomesticMarketGSR Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 The whole DOHC thing is not a problem, I know what you mean. You can drop the whole front a arm assembly off of a DOHC sol and swap that directly on to a SOHC sol. I read that you can do it without using the whole a arm but I have no experience on that. You can also drop the whole assembly off of a teg too 94-2001. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weefrenchsailor Posted June 1, 2007 Author Share Posted June 1, 2007 well, i hear that the dohc del sols have bigger calipers. i am swapping in a b16 and plan to supercharge it; so i wanted the bigger calipers for the added stopping power. the whole idea of a big brake kit just isnt to appealing. in addition, i was gonna get some factory sized slotted rotors and pads. i was looking at endless for a whole kit, but their website is down. i know they make them for the 92-95 civic, would that work? also, with swapping the dohc brakes, do you mean the front lower control arm?

TS John Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Isn't the whole idea of a big brake kit exactly what you're doing in upgrading the size of your calipers? I would say the price is what's unappealing about them, not the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphries Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 GSR F&R with 10.2'' rotors paired with spoon calipers. Ceramix pads are fine.. but dont last long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
