8th Generation Honda Civic Forum - View Single Post - Brakes- USDM vs JDM

cmf · 06-03-2006, 11:02 AM

Curious to know if anyone here knows whether or not the brakes on the US Spec Civic are the same as the Jap Spec Civic. ( 2.0L )
I understand that the cars are not identical, different chassis codes and all, but just like most Hondas, some parts are the same. ie: TSX (CL9) and JDM Accord (CL7).

I ask cause Mugen has a set of rotors out for the 2.0 Civic in Japan, and if the brakes are the same, I guess it makes them available for the Si as well.

Thanks in advance for any input.
