Default Replacement calipers

Do I have any options with regard to this? Or will I have to go with a big brake setup to get some nice brembos or something nestling behind my wheels?

Just to clarify, are there any calipers I can get that will simply replace the stock ones without the need to change my discs etc, I have original 16's.

Cheers

Do you mean standard replacements or upgraded?

Spoon do a replacement caliper set up for the front but its pricey.

I think StevenM did some research in this area, I'm sure he'll add what he knows.

The problem with aftermarket calipers is most won't fit under 16" wheels.

Also most will want you to have new discs (Spoon don't, but again won't fit under 16's without spacers)

Am currently looking at other alternatives from within the Honda range that also fit under 16's, will update when I know anything.
