hehe. one piston, floating caliper baby! dont go overboard on the pistons. go with a fixed caliper though. if you can lock the tires up, then youve got enough power in them, and its time to upgrade tires. like a 2-4 piston is plenty. on a light ass civic, you dont need that much braking force. though i do recommend SS lines and an integra booster and master cylinder.

Standard practice for me on any Civic is a rear disc swap, but that's nothing special. I did a full Brambo kit on my friend's 2G GSX and it stopped fast enough to cause damage to your internal organs. I might look into going sacicons style with a M/C upgrade though.
it made a HUGE difference in pedal feel. its almost telepathic now. like an inch and a half of travel, and it stops with authority. i love it. and with a rear disc conversion, a new proportioning valve is a good idea too.

95 light-but-has-no-options DX. oh well, it still has AC, and i can add everything else. and i hate sunroofs. im too tall, my head hits the liner. and the weight issue, right at the top of the car.
