Big brake upgrade??
Ok i've seen this guy around my town. he has an 11 sec gsr turbo'ed rex. He has 15 inch rims in the front and has some huge brakes on them! I thought its not possible to do a big brake upgrade on 15's?? And why would he put bigger rims on the back ? Does it improve anything?

and to answer your question about the fitament of big brakes, some kits will fit on some 15's, its a hit or miss thing...

he is probably using the fastbrake.com kit...shit is hot, 11 inch in the front and 11.4 inch in the back, you can use 15's as well, and only cost around 300 for the mounting kit, not including rotors...

Big brake Kits for my REX?
Ok, so what company makes big brake kits for 89 CRX Si's, cause i've check AEM, HP Racing, Stoptech, and Wilwood but they dont make anything for my car. I went to that Fast Brake place, but I couldnt find any kits. also, even if i do find the kits, what rotors would i use? Would any ones work. Plz Lemme know, thanx. Oh yeah, I'm hoping to do the rear disc swap (as soon as i get the 90-91 CRX Si trailing arms, cant find em anywhere), so i'll need the rear too. Thanx again
