EG civic calipers on Fit/Jazz?
#3
Yup! I've done it with EK parts for rear, converted from drum brake type to disc brake.
Front 295mm AP Racing Brake Kit for Honda Fit with APP Brake Line.
Rear modified from EK4+pad, AEM slotted rotor 286mm diameter.

for the front it won't work
i do belive the fronts are the same as the DC chassis
the EG brakes are smaller

I bet the larger brakes and especially the Discs on the rear make quite a nice difference

yeah i'd love to learn how to do the rear disc with parts avail to the US market
i'll probably be doing 11" brakes in the front...and would like to maintain a good brake bias
track pads in the front with a stock rear drum...is gonna make the rear end feel really light and twitchy

i know for sure front EG brake parts can be used. If i recall the hub assembly and brake rotors are the same. We had to quick source some when the Spoon fit needed some parts day before a 25hour race. ill see if i can find out EXACTLY which cross over.
