yeah, in Texas, A/C is almost a necessity. Sucks commuting to work in a car with no A/C in the middle of August. You know, I always thought it was funny when I see cars in mags that had the A/C pulled, yet owners put a JDM HVAC control panel in the car. I guess if you're going to put a useless piece of hardware in just for looks, might as well get rid of the rest of the useless bits

I agree

Thanks guys, but I'm holding off on paint still want to finish up the small details in the suspension, and some engine.
awesome! so, the Cooper S rotors will fit right up (4x100) and are the same size as Prelude rotors, without having to redrill?
Yes and yes. But even better is the center is dead on snug and no need to shave down the brackets. Bolt on and go. The depth of the rotor is the same as a Integra
bless the crazy ass person who originally tried this! I'd seen a Civic or 2 running cooper wheels, but never thought about rotors. Is your car ABS? Would this setup have any negative affects on an ABS equiped car? I assume not...
I remember hearing people us VW rotors but it wasn't bolt on. The mini Cooper s are perfect, I always removed my abs so I wouldn't know. Hate dealing with all the extra sensors. I don't think it would affect anything but don't take my word for it. If you don't have Integra or EX spindles you can us Acura CL brackets and calipers which is great for those LX, DX, and CX folks.
thnks for the info. My 99 is an EX, so looks like Legend calipers/brackets and cooper s rotors, and I'm all good.
lookin good, awesome brake swap, you try em yet? What size master cylinder you runnin?
