I have the Fastbrakes 11" kit but with the two piece rotor (about 1/4" thicker) and the Dynalite 4 piston calipers, and it fits fine.

does anyone know if you can fit ITR calipers to the 11" upgrade??? because i would prefer to use the ITRs instead of the integras...i have seen both calipers before and the ITRs i must say has much bigger pistions compared to the GSRs

I've had two sets on two cars, love them. I had the ITR caliper set-up on my '99 Civic Si, and the set-up I described before on my 92 CX hatch.

Brian is a great guy and very informative. You can't go wrong with one of his packages.

how did you get the ITR calipers on your 99 civic SI? did you use another adapter braket or are the ITR and GSR calipers kind of the same in terms of where they are positioned from the hub?

I believe the caliper bracket has to be milled 5mm for the ITR calipers to fit.

You should just contact Brian @ Fastbrakes and he will answer all your questions.

I run the 11" Fastbrakes kit on my 92 cx hatch and it barely clears my 15" gsr hammers.....but it clears.

BTW: I love these brakes, they are the best bang for your buck. Brian.

there is a wealth of info here in the database.
I have run many setups, all under 15" wheels.
11" prelude vtec 93-96 rotors with itr calipers on 4-lug-teg front knuckles. mill the caliper 5mm where it mates to the knuckle. done.

fastbrakes can get you the setup cheaper than you can put it together yourself I bet. trust me, guess how I know
