hi hi
sifus all around...

new bie questions
after search around honda thread

i'm currently driving So4
i'm planning to upgrade my disc brake :D
due to my brake not makan anymore
brake pads also almost finished

my rear is a drum brake

friends ask me to change ek's disc at the back n upgrade front to 2pot..

to all sifus any good installer to intro?
with a good price of course :D
 
There's a place in Puchong Giant half-cut garage.

It's called temple MUN LEE!!!
 
I've asked around b4....

Project Miu +- RM2000
EBC RM880 (kakimotor)
Brac-X RM1600 (Autobags)
dba RM1150 (kakimotor)
Ayam brand in Speedtune Puchong RM550 (but looks preety OK)
National RM330 (rosedi autosports)
OEM Chop Shop +- RM250

EF,EG,EK share same rotor.... EF and EG confirm same. But EK some say same, some say not same (EK9 obviously diff). Have'nt really confirm it yet...
 
First, u must decide u wan to use 4 lugs or 5 lugs first before upgrade. 4 lugs is lighter, 5 lugs has better performance. It's not because it has 5 holes, the rotor and caliber are better.

If u plan to stick back to 4 lugs, change ur rear disk brake and change ur front rotor with brake pad. Project U is good for performance and value. Just change rear disk brake will not help much.

If u plan to change 5 lugs, just go ahead with ek9 set. Upgrade the front rotor and pad if got some more budget.

Take note, if just just change brake pad without changing the rotor it will eat ur OEM rotor faster!
