5 lug swap 99 TL (R) brake ?

[Steadycrusin401]

I've serach but found nothing on this topic. I just got done doing my 5 lug swap and found out 2 things. First, is the weight difference between the F spindles. 20lbs + if not more. Second, the TL rear rotor & caliper bracket is larger then the accord v6. unfortuneatley, I didn't get the rear calipers as part of the deal. My question is, has anyone ever done a TL rotor/caliper swap before?

thanks,
Verak

Just use your rear calipers, no need to change them, unless you original had drums. TL rear calipers are the same as the one on the i4 and V6.

RL 4 piston front and Legend 2 piston rear.

RL 4 piston front and Legend 2 piston rear.

Still leaves you with a small rear rotor. If the Legend 2 piston is compatible with a larger rotor, then go for it.

The RL BBK requires almost a 13" rotor, paired with the stock rear rotor, that sucks.

I'm a EX already. If they are the same, why is the TL rear rotor larger? a larger rotor would require a larger caliper bracket and the part #'s don't match up.
