i was wondering what is the differnece between the st and the gt front brakes?

if there is... are the parts interchangable?
is it worth switching over tp gt?

front - there's not much difference but the GT are bigger. The parts aren't interchangable, not worth it in any way IMO

rear, GTs have disks, ST = drumbs

i switched my St fronts for GT fronts a while back since i got them for CHEAP. But batman's right, you wont feel a difference...

If I were you, take that money and get a set of stainless steel lines on all 4 corners. You will notice an Immediate difference in braking. WAAAY more useful than just the front brakes alone.

Or if you haven't already, upgrade the rear to disks off the GT, i noticed a great difference there.

I watching a vid the other day of 96 vs 98 spec integra type r. 98 spec had 1 inch larger front disc brakes and the car stopped 30 ft shorter than the 96 spec. would this hold true for gt vs st disc brakes?

yes you can, you just need to remove the caliper and bracket off the ST and replace it with the GT's brakes.

I know you have a plan in mind, but why bother with the 94 if your getting a 97 gt? it much more convenient not having to go through that hassel... especially the rear brakes? and if you ever decide to do a 3s swap, it would save you tons of headaches just to go with the gt?
