- Sat Aug 02, 2008 8:07 am #64265 Unless you have the SIR you have the 240mm brakes. They 262mm are only on the SIRs with the B16a motors.

- Sat Aug 02, 2008 4:49 pm #64297 Nice, good info. So our Eg's have the stock 240mm disc brakes? Sweet! I'm getting some drilled discs.

- Sat Aug 02, 2008 6:42 pm #64310 Drilled discs really arent that great. They are more prone to cracking than the slotted. I would suggest if you just do street, or ever street with some track driving to just get the slotted.

- Sun Aug 03, 2008 1:04 pm #64375 Here our Esi model sometimes has 262mm front brakes and rear discs aswell, was only the models with ABS though. Non-abs Esi's are 240mm. An esi has a 1.6 sohc vtec

Im pretty sure the Vei is 240mm aswell, the last one i saw was anyway. If you have ABS though you might have the bigger brakes, cant remember if ABS was an option on the Vei or not
