I am doing a JDM ITR 5 lug conversion on my 92 Si now. I am working on replacing the rear brake pads but it is not going so well.

I posted this in the ITR forum today, I really want to get this taken care of asap.

I am putting in Axxis Ultimates and they appear to be a little too wide. I snapped both of the pads in the spring retainers and I am trying to put the caliper on. It will not slide over the two pads when they are on the rotor in the retainers. The two outer fingers of the caliper will not clear the outer pad. I don't have any ideas on this one. Any help will be appreciated. I am using the pad shim on the outer pad but I don't have on the inner because I don't even have on so I don't think the added thickness of the shims is too blame. And I've tried putting the pads in without anyshims, still no avail.

Please help.

I know it's an offensive question (or maybe not)

BUT...

did you spin in the rear piston ALL the way... sometimes it seems like it's screwed in all the way but when you turn it some more it sinks a little more...

also a good chance you got the wrong pads... I got the wrong ones with my powerstop rotors...

I got the correct pads. I screwed the piston in and I got it to work. Thank you!
