If they have a kit for the 94-97 accord pre fab'd, im sure it can't be to difficult or entail complications. That is a 4 lug hub, is that from an accord?

hmmm, i've never seen baers on an import. I really don't think you are gonna get their application to fit. Their calipers are very wide.

And after having experience w/ those exact brakes, I really don't like them much, they are pretty fidgety and I wish I had gone w/ willwood. If I were you, i'd look into willwood or brembo. I know comptech sells a brembo brake upgrade specific for our cars.

also if you get these brakes ONLY get the pro touring pads, the other two suck for street driving!

The following link goes to a site (that has a very expensive but good big brake product), and I do not know if they have a first-gen CL kit, but it might be worth looking into:

They use Wilwood ...

check out comptech's brembo setup, it's a direct fit.

If it's not listed anymore Email them.
