Hello, everyone. I've been around Hondas for a while. Along with my '15 Si, I have a 98 EK hatchback and a '94 Integra GSR. The wife drives a '07 RDX. I bought my 9th gen Si in the spring of '22 in Missouri. I'm sure one, or both, of the previous owners are on this forum. Mods include: CAI with battery relocation, Full Race exhaust, stiffer motor mounts, Hybrid Racing shifter, KTuner, BC coilovers, 17" SSR wheels, Fastbrakes RL caliper conversion with powdercoated RL calipers, and a few other small things. I have a RBC ready to go on when I find the time. 4Piston is currently porting a head for me including Ferrea valves and 4Piston springs. I also have their cams ready to go in. RRC oil pump is on the way. When the time comes, I'll get an ATI damper and RV6 "header" as well. eventually I'll turbo it, but one step at a time. I'm going to just enjoy every step along the way.

Clean car bro.Looking to do the rl calipers on my si soon.How do they feel? You didnt have to do anything with the brake booster did you? Just hoping its an easy install with the fast brakes kit lol. Also do you have any suggestions on what brake fluid I should use and what rotors are you running?

Thanks! I bought it like that, but it does use the Fastbrakes kit. The rotors are PowerStop rotors for a 350Z track, I believe (confirm with Fastbrakes). No modification to the booster required. I just use off-the-shelf DOT 5 fluid. It's just a daily driver, no track days. So no high-end fluid needed. The brakes are incredible. Stopping power is unreal! Definitely worth it. Plus, it looks really cool. I got the calipers powdercoated. Disassembling the calipers and reassembling them after powdercoating was more difficult than removing and installing them. Here's some better pics of just the brakes.
