howdy y'all,
my civic's front discs are to be replaced. i am thinking to buy some big rotor's, but to keep and relocate the existing calipers.
anyone got any input on that?

AEM big brake kit... or similar i.e. wilwood, baer, rotora, brembo
They all use the setup you're talking about. It's reliable and safe usually kits go for $800-$2500 depending on what you want.

Dont waste the money, just get a GSR brake conversion, some new disc and pads, and call it a day. You can find the front and rear disc conversion for less than most companies front upgrades.
