Yeah. Esp if i do the doors like Jon did.

[mndude07]

Still haven't found the time of good enough weather to put my new brakes on, so I've been getting them prepped at least...taping up the rotors to paint the vents and hats so I don't get any rust.




Also, these finally arrived in the mail...so one more part of the puzzle is here.



..and a random engine bay shot from a ladder. Note that I installed the TAS stainless fender washers...can't see them too well. I'll get a more detailed, close-up picture later.

Steel Braided brake lines?

Rotor over hub conversion:
New bearings and hubs
Prelude Vtec 11" rotors
Prelude vtec/accord v6 calipers powdercoated wrinkle black
goodridge stainless steel brake lines
new brake master cylinder

Using all brand new parts.

[mndude07]

About 2/3 done. The drivers side is completely done, the passenger side has all the old stuff off, and the new master cylinder is bench bled and installed.

Tomorrow I will install the new parts on the passenger side, and bleed the system. Then enjoy my new brakes.

Ball joints are really stupid for the record. So are those pressed on hubs/rotors. I couldn't have done this without all the DIYs on here.

Here's a teaser of another sweet new piece thats going on.

[mndude07]

Front brakes are done!
Braking is a thousand times better than before, and the stainless lines make the pedal feel very firm. I feel like the car can actually stop in time for an emergency now.

No pics yet, because it started raining as I was finishing up...so hopefully I'll be able to take some tomorrow.

I guess next on the list is some random odds-and-ends stuff...and hopefully a header finally.

mmmm BBK.

I would have went with the 11" rotor set up last year because I needed new rotors and calipers but sadly I only had the 14"ers so I couldn't do it.

Props on the ROH, I love mine.
