Like popping or what? Probably a pad sticking a bit or the caliper seal is bad.
Legend Caliper swap
Just finished doing my legend caliper swap.
The only problem is after driving around for a bit, whenever I use the brakes one of the calieprs makes a strange knocking sound. Does anyone know what might be causing this?

double check to see if there are any free play in the caliper to the bracket, and the pad to the caliper...
what kinda car do u have? do u have a diy instruction on how to do that? i've been looking into legend/nsx calipers on civics but i haven't gotten and REAL concrete responses. most are people saying they heard someone doing it...

The swap is done easily on Accords and ITR's. You can't do it on a Civic without a ITR 5 lug conversion with the larger size rotors.taz77 said:double check to see if there are any free play in the caliper to the bracket, and the pad to the caliper...

would the spindle on an itr fit onto a civic that will retain the 4 lug hub? is it that the itr rotors and caliper mounting bracket are larger than the civics? i just need some more details on this...wuwarrior said:The swap is done easily on Accords and ITR's.

don't quote me on this but I think you need the whole hub. and yes, the mounting brackets are bigger, the pads are bigger.taz77 said:would the spindle on an itr fit onto a civic that will retain the 4 lug hub? is it that the itr rotors and caliper mounting bracket are larger than the civics? i just need some more details on this...
There are guys on H-T using re-drilled prelude vtec rotors on gsr knuckles, so they can use nsx calipers on their cx civics. Now those are big brakes.
