hrmmm that close huh? I have to see for myself... I am more worried about not being able to get myself a set of honda discs now... Kev and his mates have scooped up Sydney's supply of hondas :shock:

yeah Tempe Tyres are a fair dinkum mob, delt with them before for a mate's car.


I'm sure if you ping gareth_1330 you can work something out... :wink:
<edit> He might even make all the bits and fit'em, for a few $$$ more.. 8)

lol u will have to fight the towies off the cars :P try and find a large wreckers ;) usually full of early civics ;) my local has none :( lucky i already have my gear ;)


Do (certain year) Civic calipers work as well? I've been ringing up wreckers and nobody can help with City calipers. There is a specialist honda joint that will do them for $150 with the calipers/discs/bolts. I think Kev mentioned $80 was fair money, but I'm not sure if he meant for the calipers or for calipers + discs.

84-87 Civics fit, no problem. $150 is a ripoff. $80 for calipers & discs is fair, but you can do better..... :wink:

Excellent. I reckon there woulda been more Civic's on the road then City's... I don't even know what a city looks like.

City looked like the square-back dumpy Civic, but a bit smaller. Basically the same brakes.
