Brakes

[FyreDaug]

Just finished reading the how-to on doing a rear disc swap (because I am getting a donor car right away, hopefully can find an EX-i (or LX-i, US) and take the brakes from it. However I wasnt aware the front brakes were bigger on the upgraded model and I just bought brake pads for my LX (us DX). Am I right to assume those pads wont work on a 1" larger rotor? The FAQ's and how to's didnt cover that part.

The smaller pads will not fit properly in the larger 88-89 FI caliper. Exchanging them if they're still in the package shouldn't be too bad.

Common sense should have told me that, but I wanted to make sure. Thanks mike.
