I was at my Honda dealer and they couldn't do anything with the numbers I gave them. They seemed to not have any outlet for said parts. The usdm ones were $108 a piece at you average everyday price. That's about all I can do. Don't we have any international Fit/Jazz folks willing to just go and order these parts for us?
nice. if it works out, there's going to be a whole lot of sold rear brakes from 1st gen tegs. there must be thousands in the junk yards cause i never see 1 on the road.
I guess many of you watched this video. When that guy was introducing the car, he indicated that the Fit in the video used a "DC5 REAR DISC CONVERSATION". I just want to point out that will the DC5(RSX type S?) rear disc system a direct fit on the FIT? Or anyone with a DC5 sitting at home want to switch around and see if it will work?

Bad news, item #39 in that link "BOLT, FLANGE QTYx6" so the splash guard is different than the ones we have on the FIT since FIT needs 4 bolts on each side, which is 8 in total.
If this thing works and the hub is the same, say we purchase from Delray Acura, we need item #1, 5, 6, 7, 8 which equals to USD$372.22+TAX and we are still missing the splash guard and the caliper bracket.

Right, sorry its been a while. I can order the brackets for whoever wants them but the only snag is it will be pricey. As I said before the brackets are £90 each and taking international shipping into account it's gonna end up costing about $400 just to get them. I'm gonna try talking to japanparts to see if they can come up with anything so will let you know how I get on. I was planning on finding some Jazz's that have been smashed up but junkyards want a fortune for the brake setups!
My buddy in Europe said they only had 52200-SAA-E00 and the other number didnt come up in their system and it was 90 euros. I think I am going to wait still.
Right latest update, japanparts can supply them at 6200yen a piece which works out about £29. He's not sure on postage though without knowing the weight but I'd say they're cheap enough!
yeah, goto Japanparts.com: TOKYO GM SHOKAI KK and check the website out, they do loads of top stuff, standard stuff and performance. If you email koji@japanvehicles.com with the two part numbers he'll sort ya out. Only problem is he can't give ya postage charges without buying a set as he doesn't know the weight of them but I just checked the postage for a manifold, which was about £30 to UK, cause I can't see it bein more than that! As for brake hoses and stuff I think earlier in the thread someone mentioned what could be used but you'll have to check. Hope all this helps!
1. Spindle and caliper bracket 52200-SAA-E00 and 52210-SAA-E00
2. Disc hub 42200-SAA-G51
3. Drum hub
4. Brake hoses 01466-SAA-J51 and J50 I think, also got code 01466-SAA-000 listed but I assume that is for the drum brakes as the same number is listed twice
5. Handbrake cable right side 47510-SAA-J53
and Left side 47560-SAA-J53.
If anyone needs any part numbers wotsoever let me know as I've downloaded Honda's electronic parts catalogue upto 2005 so can find just about anythin!
I was trying to look up these numbers at the dealer and nothing came up.

I was going to use my 91 CRX spare rear wheel hub assemblies to replace the Fit drums until I found AJ-Racing in Vancover is offering a specific conversion kit as a group buy for $650. The photo of existing kit parts is good and deliveries expected beginning in April. I suggest that is a much better route. Even in our case the remachining work is extensive as is the Integra's.
And yes, the P/N's and drawings shown cannot be accessed in North America.
The Asian conversion requires splash plate, hubs, spindles, cars, nuts, calipers, the works. Cost will be ca $1000 plus nearly the same for shipping. AL is machining new spindles that fit 'regular' Honda disc parts so his kit is a lot less expensive. Good move AJ.
