that's the problem with the tourer that there's not so many modification parts as for saloon, when I wanted to lower mine I couldn't find Eibach as they were discontinued, BC didn't have a kit for tourer in this time so I end up with KW springs, but didn't see this HR before, looking forward for...
Hi guys, today I was changing rear brakes and when I was trying to push in the piston to fit new pads I realized that whole piston has corroded and won't go inside, so I'm after two refurbished rear calipers for my tourer, I'd appreciate if you could point me in the right direction to get ones...
I don't know which colour of wire it is for brake light, but I would start from stripping the side trims in the boot where all wires are going through and check for any damage there.
if it's just blowing from under injector then all what you need to do is to replace copper washer something like this

it's easy job when...
I've got HEL brake lines all round, but they were fitted together with bigger calipers and new pads so I think that all this has take a part in brake improvement
pre facelift (2003-2005) EX models don't have voice control so these don't have this switches, facelift models (2005-2008) does have this function that's why there are this switches :)
I've got 7th gen, but it may give you some idea, anyway I've got 8" front and 9" rear, offset ET35, lowered -30mm, and I had to to do some rolling on the rear arches as there was rubbing, fronts were fine though :)
I agree with noise and dust, but reduction in the contact area?? grooved discs are causing more friction then standard disc, that's why they're considered as performance discs
as far as I know standard CTR wheels has offset +55 so if they will be fitted with 25mm spaceres this will bring the offset to +30 so they may stick out a bit from the wheels arch, but if decide to get these spacers make sure they're hub centric, otherwise you may have problems with wheel...
Accord TypeS, I'm not sure if 2.4 has same calipers as 2.2, mine came off 2.2, but I had some discussion some time ago about the size of the discs and 2.2 has 320mm, not sure about 2.4.
I got mine from Poland, also if you want to improve your braking I'll recommend you to change brake lines for steel braided, they quite cheap and will work well with bigger brakes :)
I ***ume you talking about 8th gen, although I have 7th gen I swaped mine for twin pot from ATS, bigger calipers and bigger discs improved braking, don't know about 8th gen, but in 7th gen I had to swap calipers, cariers and discs.
7th gen carriers won't fit to ATR calipers, and tbh you'll struggle to find carriers on it's own, unless you'll ask the seller of this calipers if he has carriers ;)
have you fitted standard clutch? if so, I would suggest to pay a bit more a put TypeS clutch as this will also fit to standard 2.2 dtec and it's stronger ;-)
