Default upgraded OEM calipers?

right now I have a 96 spec ITR 4 lug conversion on my EH and it is equivalent to a GS-R brake swap. It just has a different lug pattern. I was wondering if there was a Honda OEM caliper that I can bolt on or slightly mod that would increase my braking capability....

Sorry TOM if this is in the wrong forum, feel free to move it.

You can machine 97+ itr calipers to fit but I don't know enough about it. That was my plan for my hatch before the accident.

5mm off the caliper bracket and that's all i know. Haven't found pics online of exactly what part is ground down. I believe owen soy_boy or whatever has that setup you might want to ask him for pics. And all you'd have to do would be the prelude VTEC rotors. They'd bolt right on.
