No the CL9 calipers have different mounts so you cant use them. They run different pads to the CRV too, but the CL9 ones fit the mini rotors better (crv ones overhang)>
I don't believe you will need extended wheel studs - the new rotors are the same thickness as the standard ones so you will still get the same amount of thread in the wheel nut. My stock heat shields fitted with some slight bending. I've seen some people cutting/grinding bits off but this is not required for the RD1 CRV calipers. Cheers
Nice but you stated what type of rotor but never stated what type of brake calipers that important to who wish to do this upgrade and also the type of disc pads to use. You've got to be more detailed. 😎
yeah sorry mate, hopeless at thinking of those things while filming. I'd listed them in the description of the video and I'll try and be specific in future.
I'm pretty sure mine is abs and I think they are identical. I remember reading that possibly the booster was bigger on the abs model but it was very close if not the same as the eg one
some 15 inch fit and some don't - It just depends on the barrels they use. My 15x7s +35 offet fit but ENKEI RPF1 in the same spec dont. So unfortunately there is no black and white answer.
hmm mine were from a 97 from memory. But its not so much about the year its about the size of the rotors/knuckles. You want the ones with the bigger 260mm rotors. I believe some EG's have the same knuckles and DC2 integras as well
I use rd1 crv calipers (97 to 01). To do it for 150... I used pick a part calipers which I got for $50, rotors which I got for $60 and pads which I got for $40. I also used the spacer rings in the video but most people don't run them and don't have issues. Stops great and with doing.
@@teamaxlestands Thanks for that. Im in Sydney and im struggling to find calipers under 200...I like the spacer rings, you get shuddering on hard breaking without them.
@@niall7546 oh that sucks, they are very easy to come by here in Melbourne. All the wreckers have a few RD1s and no one seems to be really getting the calipers. I just went to the cheapest pick yourself wrecker and pulled them off, they needed a bit of a clean but work fine. Good luck on the hunt for them.
these are 15x7 +35 but if doing this brake upgrade be careful I've heard that some wheels like 15x7 +35 Enkei RPF1's do not clear the calipers in this setup.
Yeah i did that while the engine was out. 1inch master and appropriate booster. I know some people are running this setup with a stock MC but you would have a spongy pedal.
@@teamaxlestandswhich model did you upgrade to? I just installed the bbk but pedal is spongy and goes to the floor, i have stock 94 si ej1 MC and prop valve, should i change both?

Love the videos top job keep up the good work
Thanks, appreciate it!

CRV calipers but with CL9 Accord Euro pads... Will CL9 Accord Euro calipers work?
No the CL9 calipers have different mounts so you cant use them. They run different pads to the CRV too, but the CL9 ones fit the mini rotors better (crv ones overhang)>
@@teamaxlestands Good info thanks man
Is extended wheel stud recommend and does the stock heat shield fit as well?

what type of brake booster and master cylinder do you use for this setup?
I'm using a 1inch MC and booster from a dc2/dc4 integra - I think first gen crv might also be an option?
Does it matter if its abs or no?
I'm pretty sure mine is abs and I think they are identical. I remember reading that possibly the booster was bigger on the abs model but it was very close if not the same as the eg one
Oh ok ty for the info really helped a lot
Can I use a spindle off a 98 ex model to do this upgrade?
Just has a quick look and they are the 10.2" rotors (260mm) on the ex so yeah they are the right ones for this conversion
what is the minimum wheels to not touch the caliper
some 15 inch fit and some don't - It just depends on the barrels they use. My 15x7s +35 offet fit but
ENKEI RPF1 in the same spec dont. So unfortunately there is no black and white answer.
@@teamaxlestandsI can confirm this statement. I tried this conversation on my crx and the crv calipers were about 1/2” too big!
What year ex knuckles ?
hmm mine were from a 97 from memory. But its not so much about the year its about the size of the rotors/knuckles. You want the ones with the bigger 260mm rotors. I believe some EG's have the same knuckles and DC2 integras as well
What year calipers did you use? How did you manage to do this for 150?
I use rd1 crv calipers (97 to 01). To do it for 150... I used pick a part calipers which I got for $50, rotors which I got for $60 and pads which I got for $40. I also used the spacer rings in the video but most people don't run them and don't have issues. Stops great and with doing.

Wheel specs ?
these are 15x7 +35 but if doing this brake upgrade be careful I've heard that some wheels like 15x7 +35 Enkei RPF1's do not clear the calipers in this setup.
What if it’s a spacer added ?
You forgot to upgrade the brake booster and master cylinder to make it a proper brake upgrade
Yeah i did that while the engine was out. 1inch master and appropriate booster. I know some people are running this setup with a stock MC but you would have a spongy pedal.
