  1. Mechanical Problems
    The other day, when coming to a stop light, there was a light but noticeable, rhythmic grinding noise coming from my front right tire. I recently swapped out pads and rotors about a month ago. The noise is only heard under light brake pedal pressure. when I let go of the brakes, or apply more...
  2. Basic Performance
    I got an 01 civic Dx and I've been thinkin about converting my rear drums to disc. I've seen the threads and I know it is possible with the rear brake assembly from an 02-03 civic si. However, I got a salvage rsx type s as a freebee and the rear dsc assembly is intact. Is it possible to swap in...
  3. Wheels/Tires/Brakes
    I keep seeing everything for the rear disc brake conversion and this has been on my mind, does anyone know if the SI brake calipers fit on the EM2 in the front? Reason I ask is because this could open up the door to other brake selections(big brake) besides the normal Brembo and Wildwood setup...
  4. Electrical
    I have this problem. Some guy on the freeway yesterday told me my brake lights weren't working. I went to check them and none of the lights work and nor does the third brake light. I've had 04 tails in an 03 coupe for 2 years ghetto rigged with no problems. Last time I worked on my tails was...
  5. Electrical
    Does anyone know where I can find the 3rd brake light that goes into the spoiler for an EM2. Or if you know the part # that might help to. I've been looking on ebay and the web, but can't seem to find it. Lots of spoilers with the light and lots of 3rd brake lights for the back window, but I...

    equals a shit ton of brake dust. fawk my life. 3 or 4 days after a wash.. thought it would be a good idea to share with you some of the downside of kickass brake pads (also the loud braking noise) totally worth it though.
  8. Wheels/Tires/Brakes
    The time has come for me to get some new brake pads, and I'm not entirely sure what I want to get. First, a little background. I'm looking for some specific advice, not just "My homeboy runs XXXXX pads and likes them." I'm going to autocross these pads about once a month, so overall stopping...
  9. Wheels/Tires/Brakes
    I was looking at some EP's and i have reason to believe my rear rotor is a bit too small. In the picture you can see alot of the dust shield and there's some pad not even touching the rotor. what do you guys think?
  10. Wheels/Tires/Brakes
    OK so the time has come where i need some new breaks, as so of you know i just got white rims so one of the things im looking for a pads that produce the least about of dust. also as some of you might know im also in the process of boosting my car. so i need something that has good stopping...
  11. Wheels/Tires/Brakes
    So i am getting ready to work on my brakes. Things i want to do are rotors, pads, SS lines, and dust guard removal. Thanks to fellow 7thgeners the DIYs are fairly strait forward (thanks a lot) for the things i need to. BUT, i also want/need to do a flush on the brake system and then bleed the...

    can these brake lines be used with the swap? the price cannot be beat right now ($66) and it says it for models with rear disc. but the si brake line kit is a different part number and runs for $127...

  14. Wheels/Tires/Brakes
    So next thing on the list is to upgrade the brakes. Ill probably go with Brembo slotted and pads, then purchase SS lines a bit later. I know with a stock engine i don't need a great braking set up to slow down the wimpy 120hp beast, but i do want a high quality product and a greater improvement...
  15. General Talk
    so i was wondering if anyone knew if there was any product out there that works really good on removing brake dust, because the pads i had on before were really dusty and its not coming off very well. i used some bug and tar remover, but it takes a while with that:dunno:
  16. Electrical
    I have a problem that I can't figure out, my brake/tail lights keep popping fuses I know basic electrical. I've isolated the problem to the interior of the civic but I really need a wiring diagram for this to figure out better what it could be. Unless anything has any idea.
  17. Member Builds
    Undercoating the car. Hey everybody, The name is Oeve and I am from Belgium! The first car I bought was a 2003 civic coupe! I totaled it after 7000Km then got a new 04 facelift coupe from insurense. It went through some change by the years making it look like this. <Exterieur: - Magnesium...
