I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

I'm running Wilwoods on a Civic and love them. The only thing I would recommend is getting EBC Green Stuff replacement poads and NOT running the Wilwood race compound pads on the street. They stop fine, but the noise and dust are unbearable.

Also, I am running the Fastbrakes 10.9" rear upgrade on a 1996 hatch which makes no difference from EF/EG/EK. Talk to Brian at Fastbrakes because he should be able to give tyou almost exact dimensions and how much wheel clearance you'll need for his kits. the guy is a genius and a wealth of information.
I'm not happy unless you're not happy.

No, I'm using the stock calipers. To prevent rolling downhill - leave your car in gear.
