Default Stock front dual piston caliper upgrade

Not sure if anyone else has ever done this as of yet, but I just had dual piston calipers installed on my '03 Accord 6cyl 6spd Coupe, from a '95 Acura CL 4dr legend. Along with the other upgraded brake components, this car can really come to a stop, like right now. I'm extremely happy with the suspension and brake components as a whole! Anybody ever heard of this swap before. I guess I do things backwards, I've upgraded the handling and stopping capabilities of this car before going for the torque and power.

for the rear brakes you will need to swap the WHOLE rear set up from a 5th gen accord that has rear disc set up. You will also need to swap the rear cross member to attach to rear swap bar.
As for the front upgrade you will need to do some research but from what I remember reading when I was looking to do the same swap. You need the WHOLE knuckle set up for your front...I would suggest searching on this one. I don't recall anyone on this forum who has done the swap your looking for answers in.
