well, first you can always upgrade your front brakes. your rear brakes don't do much when you braking.
LXI and SEI models had bigger front brakes. SEI had rear disk brakes.

anyway, get yourself LXI front calipers, new proportion valve, new master sylinder, slotter/crossed drilled rotors, nice pads and you should be set to go.

I'm a little late on this but shouldn't this be in a different section?

[shepherd79]

no this is fine here.

It is on the edge, but next time it should go it to suspension.
Also there is someting about the 89 Acura Legend. No one has tried it but it is suppose to be real close.

how hard is it to change out the master cylinder?

Pretty simple to do the master cylinder, I've done it a few times. Only thing is that bleeding the brakes after is a pain in the ass...
