del Sol VTEC front brakes are a little larger. they are 10.somethin as most of the rest of the Honda's are 9.somethin. the rears are all the same. Unless you want to go 5 lug with the Teg Type-R

I just got new 4 lug wheels, so no I dont want to go 5 lug.

So if I want larger front disks I can get them off of a (what year) Del Sol VTEC?

Also, will this front caliper/disk conversion just bolt up?

They should bolt right up. The Years are, 94-97 VTEC models only. the size is 10.44. That should be the most you will need for even spirited drivin. Those along with good pads a rotors will do you just fine

powerslot sloted rotors and axxis kevlar metalic pads= good setup

my friend tim has an 05 rsx type s and we went for a ride in my car after i did the breaks. i wanted to show him how well they stopped so i kept speed like i was going to go by his street and stepped on them hard. he couldnt believe that was all i had done to get the car to stop like that. he said it wasnt too far off from how quick his rsx stopped. i let him try it and he was still amazed. one BIG problem tho. slotted rotors have a tendency to warp if you have a sticky caliper, and you wont even notice untill you rotate the tires. the warpage gets so much worse when you dis-seat them off the rim they were warped on. check those calipers before purchasing slotted. just my 2 cents.
