Default 1995 EX brakes on 1992 CX NO FIT???????

Hey guys,
I am in the midst of swapping all of the parts from a 1995 ex coupe to a 1992 cx hatch and as i tried to put the front brakes from the ex on the caliper mounting bracket is too think to fit on the CX( with the stock CX rotors. I tired putting the EX calipers on the CX and there is not enough room for the caliper mounting bracket (too tight in between rotor and spindle? If i put the EX rotors on will the thickness be correct or do i have to swap the whole spindle from the EX to get it brakes to work? I don't want to buy new rotors and have the whole thing still not fit. Please help guys, should be a simple question for someonbe who knows what they are doing.

Yes you have to swap over the whole spidle and control arms and stuff. The ex rotors and calipers are much bigger than the cx. Same goes for the dx and vx.

Yup, the entire knuckle/spindle has to be swapped.
