Active gate rotors are actually even bigger than that. In the Mugen catalog they have the 11.1" ITR rotor next to the active gate rotor and it dwarfs it. You also have to run 16s to clear an active gate system, whereas an ITR setup you can run 15s.

Well I cleaned this thing up this morning and had it installed. It bolted up perfectly on my coupe but was just about a inch or two short of the exhaust arc. We added about a inch and change to the end of the down pipe fix that. I will post pics on the car this weekend.
Before

After 600 & 1000 grit & some Mothers.

And I installed this thing this past weekend.

Isn't there overlap with one of the holes??

How safe would that be??

I was thinking about upgrading the brakes on the Fit and I've always like the Active Gate (yes, it's major overkill, but it's MUGEN!!)

Yea there may be some overlap but it's not really a big deal. Lots of people have done it before, although I probably wouldn't do it. Although those active gate rotors are probably the best part of the system

the "Mugen" caliper is an S2k caliper but the Rotors are Mugens Own as are the Pads which are S2K fitment and the micromesh brake lines.
