Brake Upgrade Options
 
 
 
 
 
 

Brake Upgrade:

Here's the choices you have in order of ease and price.

1) Stock Odyssey 11" rotors with 94 Legend GS Sedan twin piston calipers and pads.

2) Complete 99-01 RL brake setup. 11.8" rotors, pads and single piston calipers.

3) 99-01 RL 11.8" rotors, caliper brackets off or the 99-01 RL calipers, 94-95 Legend twin piston calipers ONLY and 94-95 Legend GS twin piston pads.

If you're buying the calipers new from the dealer, you will need to order all the anti-rattle clips as well. They do not come with the new calipers. These are the clips that go at each end of the pads and also inside the caliper pushing down on the pads. If you buy "loaded" calipers from a parts house, they should come with these clips AND matching pads as well. Just remember, use the pad that matches the calipers you use. RL calipers use RL pads etc.

I didn't have to change the master cylinder with the setup I"m running. I do not know how things will be with the 99-01 RL single piston calipers though.

A few more bits of advice. If you use the 99-01 RL 11.8" rotors, you'll need to "persuade" the brake dust shield with a pry bar to move it away from the rotors and caliper mounting brackets. Not allot, but just enough so it doesn't rub.

If you use the 94-95 Legend GS twin piston calipers, you need to mount them on opposite sides of the car. Just remember, the bleeder always faces up. On the Legend, the calipers mounted on the rear of the knuckle but they mount on the front on the Odysseys.
