Im probably going to run stoptech cross drilled and slotted rotors for track purposes only and dimpled for daily driving on top of these cheap but amazing pads im using right now.

I ordered a set a couple of days ago, so I'll let you know. Since it is Easter weekend I didn't expect a quick response from them. These things are hard as **** to find, no joke.

stock lines work i did this on mines your gna need the T28 bracket tho 5th gen prelude, crv, accord v6 bracket plenty of cars to get it from.

stock lines work. and wrong on the brackets.. youll need 23t from the V6 model

Bumping from the dead.
Im using AV6 brackets.
Need to find the seals to rebuild the calipers.
EBC Yellow stuff brake pads.
Stainless steel lines.
And looking into bumping up the power with a bigger master cylinder and brake booster.

sooo youre gonna swap out your rotors every time you go to the track?

Quinn, 28T brackets will work just fine if he can't find any 6G-V6. OP, if you go with the 28T you can either put 2.5mm spacers between the pads and the caliper on both sides, OR, just change your brake pads quite a bit earlier than normal.

oh okay. i thought it was a typo or something. thanks for letting me know.

ordered all my parts, just need to buy m10 x 1.25 bleeder screws...dont know where to find em

 

[LX_F23A1]

Dorman has the bleeder screws. I finally found some... I was about to make my own. Ordered them through jegs. Part # 326-484-166

Yeah, old post revival, can anyone confirm that these Legend calipers can be used on the V6, and nothing else is required? Also, what year Legend?

From what I have gathered in this thread, the I4 guys need a bunch of the V6 parts, so I assume this is just a straight swap on the V6?

I plan on upgrading the rear rotors, since I have the relocation bracket, so it's just the calipers I am concerned about.

I know for a fact you can put them on the CL/TL its a common mod because these single piston brakes warp the rotors like a mofo.

Fairly certain its just a matter of putting the left on the right and the right on the left for a V6 there is a lot less work.
You switch the right from left because it keeps the bleeders in the correct position from what I understand.
