I am an owner of an ek4 b16 and I'm looking to upgrade my brake setup and don't know where to start, my calipers are starting to stick so I'm not sure whether to get them rebuilt or upgrade the caliper, and what would people recommend for disks and pads

It's my first project car so I'm new to this
 
Easiest upgrade is mb6/dc2 282 conversion you need MG 4x100 282 discs and good pads and that's a good upgrade
 
98 spec DC2 calipers and 282 MG ZS 180 4x100 discs is a decent upgrade for a very reasonable price.
 
It´s also considered a good upgrade to change the brake master cylinder, to an 1" MC from an Integra, Prelude V (made by Nissin), or the ones from a Mb6 (made by Lucas), in order to have a better pedal feel.
 
I'm also fitting the bigger EK9 calipers at the rear of my EK4 and I wonder If only the MG ZS 180 discs fit correctly?

Wondering because I also see the Civic 01-05 and Accord 93-98 have almost exact spec. The difference is they're maybe 1 mm thinner depending on brand (can't find OEM spec) and the "offset" is in +-1 mm range. I'd like to avoid grinding the carriers if possible.
