Can anyone confirm that the RSX Type S front calipers are the same as the S2000 front calipers? is so, why are soo many people utilizing s2k calipers over the rsx type s ones?

S2000 rotors don't have the proper hub for civics/integras. The s2000 and RSX-S rotor are the same diameter, but the RSX-S rotor has the proper sized hub. That's why we use that for hybrid setups.

I'm currently running an 11.8" RSX rotor with s2k calipers:

They're all big compared to what came on the cars (except for the spoon stuff - which is just physically bigger but uses the same pads).

I gotcha, brakes look big on the ITR, I guess the big wheels on the nissan make the brakes look underwhelming.

Custom made front adapters (by me), 12.0" rotors, they are lighter than Integra front stock discs. Calipers from a Ferrari F430:

Someone is going to ask, so I guess it will be me. Where did you come across brakes from a Ferarri or are you full of ****?
