Lightbulb S2000 brakes same as fg2??

while talking with a freind of mine at the local carwash....we started talking about brakes and he says that the brakes on his S2000 are the same as the ones on my Si.....is this true, in any way??????

nope part numbers are different for the s2k. RSX front and rear pads will fit though.

the part numbers are different...but the brakes fit just like the RSX does.
should be noted that the RSX also has a different part number...

maybe the part numbers differ because different materials are used or because they are for different cars? don't know.

S2K fits.
RSX fits.

ToV put S2K brakes on their project Si after they roasted the stock set and couldn't find Si brakes at the time.

don't know about rotors...

racingbrakes.com has rotors for both the RSX-S and the 2006 Si...they both have the same part numbers.

powerslot has brakes for the RSX-S and just released those for the 06 Si...they have different part numbers..

what does that say?

S2000, Accord Euro-R, FD (JP)/ FG (US) Civic fit. Calipers are direct bolt-on.

See my Euro R (300mm rotor) brake mod.

looks good i gotta say that came out nicely....and doesnt look to complicated...

its not really the size of the rotor i was worried about...more the style and material.
but ive since found sevveral dealers with rotor, pads, and big brake kits for the fg.
looks like its going to be powerslot lol

Are S2k brakes any better than Si brakes? I should know since I have both..haha but size wise would this be a cost effective mod?
