91 hatch brakes
I am going to use a B18A1 / B18C1 engine in a 91 civic hatch. I will be installing a 1" M.C./ brake booster soon coupled with a 40-40 "P" valve. Do I have to get bigger brakes? Isn't there setups that can utilize 13" ?? I feel I will be adding a ton of weight if I increase the rotor sizes and assemblies. I would love to continue using the stock sizes if a company made bad-mo-fo 13" brake rotors and pads. Any ideas??

Changing to Integra disc brakes is only a few extra pounds that can be cured with a set of lightweight wheels. Not to mention the braking will be much improved, and if you're making enough power to need the extra brakes, a few extra pounds won't matter anyway.
