EF Brake up grade

kuji275 · 7th April 2008, 03:28 PM

ey yo, just scored my self a ef9 and first looking at upgrading the brakes.

ive seen this video on youtube where the guy from spoon motors does up a ef9 and uses CTR brakes

does anyone know if they bolt straight in? if not how much work needs to be done to get them in?

thanks

Yeah searching will tell you what you want to know, what you may be after is a prelude brake upgrade.

EK9 is 5-stud so would require a fair amount of work to fit.

Just get some better rotors, run some good fluid, and get some good pads. Adam/EVLTEK from FBI will be able to sort you out some good pads and fluid, and hit up your local BNT branch for some brembo blanks, or zonelli slotted ones.

Unless you are doing some serious racing, these will be fine. A lot of the guys at clubsport days are doing this.
