- Mon Jul 07, 2008 1:55 pm #61105 I've found this to be the most comprehensive postings on Honda brakes. The user who did the research is the one who sold me my S2000 (11.8" or 300mm) calipers that will go on my EG project car. The chart also helped me to figure out what is need to put 4x100 EP3 rear brakes (10.3" or 262mm) on the car as well.

The calipers get bigger but the S2000 ones will fit under some 15" wheels which was a requirement of mine. The Legend 2 piston one are much heavier for a minimal increase in performance. And the larger and harder to find TL, RL, and NSX brakes need at least 17" wheels and require more extensive modifications to install.

They will? That's good to know in case I ever come across a set. Something that I don't think will happen very often. I wish that Honda made nicer OEM calipers. I know Mitsu/Subaru/Mazda get calipers from Brembo/Endless. But it would be nice to have the option to get nice anodized calipers that say Honda just like the RL ones that say Acura.

The newer Hondas have Brembos but they're mega money :cry:

ITR brackets

i've upgraded my rear brakes as well.

From 240mm to 262mm.. Teggy calipers and e-brake cables with 4x100 262mm rotors will do the trick.

- Thu Oct 02, 2008 1:56 pm #72414 Hey guys,last week i bought a pair of front drilled+slotted discs from a civic EG6,with calipers and brake lines. I am thinking now,on replacing those brake lines with stainless steel one's. Anyone has ever done this step? And also replacing the brake master cylinder with a 1996's Integra Type-R DC2... 8) and of course brand new pads and brake fluid! :)

- Thu Oct 23, 2008 1:44 am #75628 I just bought a JDM GSR conversion for my hatch.... Does anyone know if these rotors will fit them?

Thanks

- Thu Oct 23, 2008 1:25 pm #75661 When I say JDM I simply mean that the 4 wheel disc conversion I purchased came from a GSR in Japan. Didn't mean to throw around the term JDM like it was different.

My question is, will my GSR conversion (calipers and brackets) accept these larger rotors of 282mm?

- Thu Oct 23, 2008 1:33 pm #75662 But you dont get GSR's in Japan :?

GSR is a US only model, unless you know exactly what model they came from then i cant say whether they will be 282mm or 262mm

If its a US Integra they came from im guessing they'll be 262mm

By xlr8
- Thu Oct 23, 2008 2:00 pm #75666 Then where do all the B18C GSR engines come from?

I am no expert but I have been under the impression that GSR's from Japan have B18C's, thus all the engine importers offering engines from Japan.

After looking at it closer, it looks like they were not specifically called GSR's they were SiR-G's.

Now that that is out of the way,........

Yes, my conversion is 262mm's. Will the 282mm rotors that were shown at the beginning of the post bolt up the way they were ilustrated?

Thanks for all the help.
