Came for the brakes and was pleasantly surprised by the new wheels and turn signals. Both look sick! Now we need an update video on brake/tire performance. A couple of pictures wouldn't hurt either 😉
Broo you don’t know how grateful I’m to find this video today I was installing them and got hit by the pads not having much space in one side thank you man 🙏🏽
I watch Jay Leno garage and he swears by Wilwood brakes. I think you'll be happy with those. They look great! Love the "money shot". The 3D printing parts look great too.
A wise choice for what it to come. Upgrading my bug to have rear disc's saved my life many years ago. I still remember the guy's look of terror in the rear view mirror sitting at road works as I came round the bend at high speed and slammed on the anchors.
Those wheels look really nice, especially with the red caliper. I realize that wheels are very personal choice but so many people mess up when they choose them! Not you! loved the video.
Thank you for watching. Trust me I was thinking long and hard about which wheels to buy! These were on back order everywhere but i just decided to wait it out to get the wheels I want.👍
Thank you for that. I tried some i have in the garage and non of them fit. I just ordered them on ebay. Thanks for the part number 💪 thank you for watching n leaving a comment
Thanks Steve, I know ill be taking this apart in the future and i dont need the troubles of fighting red threadlocker😂I'm assuming they say red as a liability issue. They could not care less how difficult it is to remove lol.
The brakes work amazing! It feels like a completely different car while stopping. If i didnt have these sticky tires on it im sure it would constantly lock up the wheels , instead it grips and stops hard! Love it
Bro, ya solo falta el swap de motor!!! Esta mod de los frenos quedo muy chingona!!! And the Torque wrench for the lines, where did you bought... Lol...
I only use my 4k sony A6400 for the CRX videos or videos i spend more time editing. The only thing different in this video i stopped using auto focus and i manually focused on everything i want to which i think makes the video look better because its always in focus. Some people complained about my auto focus jumping around before
@@themechanic6117 hoping so im going from something stupid like 9 inch rotors to 11.5 inch rotors should just about fit underneath my 15inch wheel setup
@@themechanic6117 im pretty keen i think i might film a video on it as i havent seen anyone do it so theres not too many references theres forum posts but not any video so hopefully itll help someone
Great video mate, but Jon you know i've gotta ask...where'd you get them 'calibrated open end torque wrenches?' i need some of those XD. Wheels, tyres and brakes look amazing. Enjoy it dude.
Nice job on the conversion! I noticed in some of your other videos you now also own a Masterforce toolbox from Menards. If you did a video on it I missed it somehow, was just curious of your thoughts on it?
Yes this specific wildwood kit only fits the smaller hubs (9inch rotor) , the kit bumps the rotor size up to 11 inches. If you have the big hub (civic /integra) then you need the wildwood 12.19 dynalite kit.
The 11 inch kit like I have is for the smaller hubs is called wilwood dynalite 11" (140-8695) . The kit for cars with the bigger hubs need wilwood dynalite 12.19 (140-6310)
Next time don't use that crap wildwood break line kit. Use Goosdridge pn# 950-40000......oh and one more thing. You can't use stock 13" steel wheels with that kit. Steel 14"s with spacers possibly

Ill have a update on the brakes and wheels in future videos 👍
*GO FAST STOP FASTER.*
*THE MOST IMPORTANT AND MOST OVERLOOKED PART OF EVERY VEHICLE*
*LOOKS AWESOME. THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO.*

Thank you for watching. So far im really happy with the new parts

Brakes are often over looked! People always want to go fast but dont think about stopping fast
Nice! Nothing like a CRX update on "phone-it-in Friday" at work! Looks sick!
Thank you ! 💪
Can't wait for the K to go in.
Thanks for the lesson...
Thank you for watching
I love this build so much, can't wait to see what else you have in mind for it
Thank you! Plenty more work to do. Im sorry it takes so long
Those wheels are sick and the red caliper in the back compliments it well
Thank you !
Glad to see you doing something for yourself for a change!
Thank you. It was nice to have time to work on my car

Love the brakes...recommend getting the bleeder valve cap install Wilwood # 220-12487.
3D printed part with blinker turn signal looks great!!!
Thank you for that. I tried some i have in the garage and non of them fit. I just ordered them on ebay. Thanks for the part number 💪 thank you for watching n leaving a comment
Those brakes go hard 🔥
Definitely 💯
EKprints had a good week. got mine.
I just put in another order for the brake line brackets that he makes 💪
Very cool brake caliper , never seen such an easy pad install. Red threadlocker , yikes 😅 I'm with you on using blue 👍

Dude this is such a good video and I'm really glad you could get some time with the crx.
Plenty more stuff to do on it... The muffler recently broke in two so i have to fix that now.i dont even drive it and its breaking down 😂
Great video, BUT what in the world is that 3 bellied lift/support thing???
It's a air jack. You can find them on Amazon or ebay
I like the effort you put into editing your videos! Nice wheels! 👍
Thank you ! 👍
Yay crx back
Whats next bro k24 swap and rocker n quarter panel replacement
I have to replace the rotted away rear bumper support and my muffler pipe just broke in half so i have to fix that
Back at it with the nice upgrades and in 4K.
Love this man, nice wheels (:
Shooting in 4k is a must for this. The quality looks great. Thanks for watching and yes the wheels like nice on the car. Thanks for the compliment
Keep the hood work. You are awesome
Thank you! 💪 I appreciate you watching
You'll be able to stop so fast that you'll go back in time! Your camera and video editing are excellent

It's all in the wrist 😂
Very nice setup
Thank you
I've been waiting to watch this!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the videos that you do but where do you gets your parts for the up grade for the brakes
I bought this from JHPUSA.com
@@themechanic6117 thank you when the next video coming out
Lol I'm not sure just yet
There we go!!
💪
What's the tunes playing in the blackground? Sounds like NEYO!🤔😎
Just free music that wont get copyrighted
What spec wheels are those? This video sold me on the WW kit for my 91 lol
These are 15x7 +35 , it's a nice kit and works well 👍
The video quality was so good in this video. Did you get some camera upgrades? Enjoyable music choice inserts too!

P.s. love watching your video's time love you buddy
Im installing a big brake kit on my del sol im keen to feel the diffrence
That's what's up! The rotors size and pad size difference are massive! I can notice a difference
@@themechanic6117 hoping so im going from something stupid like 9 inch rotors to 11.5 inch rotors should just about fit underneath my 15inch wheel setup
Same here, i went from 9 inch rotors to 11 and theres still some clearance in these 15 inch wheels so i think 11.5 rotors will clear a 15 in wheel
@@themechanic6117 im pretty keen i think i might film a video on it as i havent seen anyone do it so theres not too many references theres forum posts but not any video so hopefully itll help someone
Yeah I dont see many videos on the del sol👍
Do you have link for the conversion parts.? Thanks great videos 👍🏼
You can find them at jhpusa
Awesome 👍
Thank you

Its not the wrenches....its all in the wrist ! Years of experience😂 thank you for the comment
did the original wheels not fit after the brake upgrade? (just checking because I have 14" HX rims and I'm planning a similar brake upgrade)
Yes my stock wheels didn't fit over the brakes that's why I had to buy a set of new wheels
@@themechanic6117 thanks. What size wheels did you need?
These are 15s and there's plenty of clearance. I'm not sure if 14s clear the BBK but my stock crx wheels were 13s and they definitely didn't clear
@@themechanic6117 oh thats really helpful to know! I'll try with my 14s first before shopping for wheels then.
Nice job on the conversion! I noticed in some of your other videos you now also own a Masterforce toolbox from Menards. If you did a video on it I missed it somehow, was just curious of your thoughts on it?
I didnt make a video on it. I actually like the masterforce box better than the Milwaukee box. It just seems more solid and seems to work better
Not bad.
Do you have the part number for the wilwood brake kit?
On JHPUSA the sku is : 140-8695-R
Hello
What lug nuts did you use with the new wheels?
I'm using muteki HR38 lug nuts... if I remember correctly
Nice 👌
Thanks for watching💪
WHAT SIZE ARE THE WHEEL AND THE OFFSET?
They're 15x7 +35
@@themechanic6117 I just got these brakes I hope my 15” clear thanks for the quick replay
I was worried about clearance also. The stock 13 in wheels definitely didn't clear but the new wheels have plenty of clearance 👍
@@themechanic6117 I have Rota slips, kosei k1’s and Konig hyper grams I hope one of those will clear
I think you'll be OK 👍
Will this brake kit clear drag racing wheels?
I have a set of keizer slepens 13x9s
Probably not. My factory wheels were 13s and they didn't clear
Do you have use willwood rotors or can you use other brands?
I don't know the answer to that. It would require some research
hi ,
the turn signal idea is good but poor execution . The upgrade turn light is very dull . There are flush mounted lights on the market
It's not dull at all, I can see them during the day and at night , it's very bright. Thanks for watching
I wish you had put a link for this kit
You can find it on jhpusa website
Hey, Wisenhimer-
If you ever need an actual torque _"wrench"_ simply put
a Crow's foot on the torque ratchet.
There's your "Pro Tip" 🙄
😂i always forget about the crows foot. There was no stated torque for the brake line. Just having some fun with the video editing
@@themechanic6117 The RUclips Torque Nazis will let this one slide by.
am i the one? or brake rotor looks asymmetric? 11:36
What size rims are those 🔥🔥
15x7 +35
Was yours on 242mm discs or 262mm discs??
Smaller than 242... 242 is about 9.5 inches. My crx had 9 in rotors. The wilwood kit is 11 inches
@@themechanic6117 great I will look into this kit!
Hey man..what size rotor was ur oem rotors ?
Oem rotor size for the HF model is 9 inch rotor
@@themechanic6117 thanks man ..and the wilwood kit is a direct bolt on ? I only could find kits that bolts on to 242mm rotors.
Yes this specific wildwood kit only fits the smaller hubs (9inch rotor) , the kit bumps the rotor size up to 11 inches. If you have the big hub (civic /integra) then you need the wildwood 12.19 dynalite kit.
@@themechanic6117 thanks so much man..sorry last question..do you happen to know the kit number ..
The 11 inch kit like I have is for the smaller hubs is called wilwood dynalite 11" (140-8695) . The kit for cars with the bigger hubs need wilwood dynalite 12.19 (140-6310)
It concerns me that you spent so much on a great set of brakes and it was missing parts and in standard sizes. Nothing is ever easy for you lol
😂just my luck lol ... Honestly, who uses standard size fittings anymore??
Next time don't use that crap wildwood break line kit. Use Goosdridge pn# 950-40000......oh and one more thing. You can't use stock 13" steel wheels with that kit. Steel 14"s with spacers possibly
