That's an EG, 3 door hatchback year 93. I thought it was compatible with what you guys there have, the DX model. It was originally a single point injector system, but I swapped the engine. Recently i bought a DX HAWK pads for my car but the design was not the same with my car. The calipers could not be closed with the new pads, too bad though. The rotors are exactly the same in diameter though.

In order to change your brake pads you have to open the caliper to change them. That couldn't be closed with the HAWK pads. they have different design than the standard.

That's not the problem the pads sit in the caliper when the thing is open, but it cannot be closed, the design of the EDM is not the same as the USDM. il try to take some pics of what i mean tonight to clear things up.
