Default NSX rear brakes?

I searched and found a lot of usefull info for Legend and NSX FRONT caliper upgrades on civics. However no one mentions the rear calipers. Do they fit? bolt placement is teh key component (I am hoping that all I need to do is the same for the fronts as the rears, which is grind the inner portion of the caliper bracket and redrill the NSX rotors to 4x100)

Fastbrakes.com has the rear brakes that you can buy, im not sure what they did to make it fit, and you dont have to re drill nsx rotors you can buy vw corrado rotors and they are the correct size and 4x100 as well

please note stock rear discs on EG and EK models are like 9.4" and NSX rears are over 11" rears. Ive heard the only way to do it is rear NSX calipers, those corrado rotors (or NSX ones) and that bracket, cause there is no stock bracket to space that much. I'm gonna try making my own out of stainless steel in my friend's dad's machine shop via a milling machine, and a buncha other **** for metal works.

thats going to be alot of work, id rather just buy it and know it will work, but youll be able to say that you made it... good luck

if your going to do this just make sure you have nsx ones in the front, if nto bigger or else when you slam on the brakes the rears will lock up first
