Default RSX base model front/rear calipers on a teg

Ok, I did the rsx-s front and rear brakes on my hatch a while back and everything went smoothly. plenty of write ups on here.

My question is, im doing a 5 lug conversion on my integra, i do not have calipers or rotors yet so I am wondering if RSX BASE MODEL front calipers will work with a 11.1" type r rotor. I know the rsx-s uses 11.8" rotors so does it mean that the base model calipers will work if I have the caliper bracket shaved? As for the rear calipers, if using the base model rears, i know to put the right on the left side and vise versa, will this work with itr rear rotors?

I think I still have my front ITR calipers lying in my garage somewhere. I know I kept them when I "upgraded" to the Legend 2-piston calipers.

The fronts probably have like 40-50k on them... if you're really interested I can dig around for them.

for some reason i think that if you buy calipers from advance or wherever, that it is the caliper only and no caliper bracket

From my reading, i heard the rsx uses the same brakes as the ITR. From the reading, they stated that even though the part numbers are different, they are the same brakes.

I am running the Wilwood kit for the base model RSX on my ITR. So I guess the base model RSX and ITR calipers would be the same?

I have some CRV/ITR front spindles with calipers, rotors, pads and partial shafts. These are the 36mm shafts like the JDM fronts. They are complete with upper A-arms and all.. They also have uncut brake lines. You can do a name search and find my for sale thread. Asking 150 for them plus shipping.

For the rears there is also a guy on here that goes by allmotorek4 that has direct bolt on rear disc rotors that are 5 lug and they will work with any DA, DC rear disc setup without upgrading to the ITR or bigger caliper. He is asking 100 a set.

So for 250+ shipping you could essentially have 5 lug swap given that you already the rear disc setup now. You can find rear disc at a yard for 75 or so. That is still WAYYYY cheaper than any DC2/ITR or CTR 5 lug conversion. Actually less than half the price.

I never figured out anything about the base model calipers I just ended up buying front itr calipers and rsx-s rears. Had to do the classic L on R side and vise versa.

the accord, legend and ITR all use 23t calipers. i paid something like $50 a piece for a pair of 2000 accord v6 calipers. if the "itr" is hard to find, get them for another model. same honda part
