#40234 Now is your chance :thumb:

And it is easy !!

Parts you will need:

- A pair of good Integra Calipers with brackets and brake pads
- A pair of MG ZR 160 1.8 or MG ZS 180 2.5 rotors (282mm) EBC makes them too. (or redrill Teggy rotors)
You can do this upgrade on all the models that have already 262mm rotors and knuckles !

People who've upgrade there brakes with VTI 262mm brakes and knuckels can do this swap.

Be sure to have a master brake cilinder from a VTI of ITR before doing this swap.

Everything is just bold on :thumb:

#40235 One thing i wondered, my ITR calipers looked a similar size to my eg4 ones.... yours dont look too much different either

Im thinking about doing this upgrade already - 262's aint as good as i was hoping :lol:

#40251 Looks pretty badass though :thumb:

Come to think of it, not all 15's will clear 282's, just depends on what ones you have

Its quite a popular conversion over here, think i need to invest in some too...

#40262 i havent gone to the track with this setup, cuz my rotors keep warping.

but ill put it this way: i never worry about having to stop in a hurry.

#40269 You'll notice the difference between 262mm rotors and 282mm rotors.

Braking is much easier and verry controlable.

You can slow down very dosed (if that's a good translation)

You even can use ATR 2 piston brake calibers, but you'll need a ITR masterbrake cilinder at least for that.

The normal minimum wheel size is 15" for this set-up

#40273 HOW ABOUT THIS...

91 Acura Legend calipers (2 piston caliper) with a bracket

and...

91 Acura Legend rotors re-drilled to 4X100

instant 11.2" brakes for super cheap. i priced it where i work, i'd have $255 tied up in it.

#40367 nice setup!

dont think it will be cost effective to be shipping rotors all the time.


RL calipers are the new crazy..

RL calipers + 12inch rotors in the front.


10.2inch rotors in the rear with ep3/rsx rear calipers


thats the crazy oem setup.
