Thank you appreciate it! I believe T5 bulbs, but somewhere in my thread when I changed the bulbs I believe I mentioned what size they are. You should do it pretty easy to replace and make the interior look way better

About time i start installing these 11inch prelude rotors on my car. No more school= time to work on my car.




Removed my h brace since i hit a dog and the dog bent it. Since that happened the h brace was against my exhaust system causing a rattling sound. You can see the white part if the metal of the brace being warmed and cooled.

I dont see it listed anywhere but its a usdm 95' Vtec right? So you already had the 10" rotors up front. Curious to see how the 11" nsx caliper/prelude rotor combo works out, im sure it will stop on a dime. Ive always felt even the Si brakes were a little small for the weight of the sol.

Poor doge, but i have the same u brace. Guess it wasn't as sturdy as it seemed, but glad your ok man.

SupremeDalek209

Its the 94 vtec same as the 95 though, and I have the 10 in the front, but mine is converted to the 4x114.3 suspension and I could not just buy that anywhere so I have to do this or prelude calipers would have done the same yet I had the opportunity to buy these. O I hope it stops on a dime I cant wait to find out how well it stops once it is installed!!
Thank you very much the dog was already dead but it was on the freeway and it was late at night so I saw the dog too late.

Painting the nsx calipers gold. Getting them rebuilt saturday. Cant wait; will install on sunday!

Before I cleaned the caliper bore out since it was a bit rusty inside. The other caliper had no rust whatsoever so I was glad about that.




Showing everyone how bad that caliper bore and caliper was after years of just sitting in some strangers storage.




I began rebuilding one and inserted the o-ring, but than i began inserting the new caliper into the caliper bore with the dust boot installed; well short story i pinched the boot and it ripped so I just sent one off to my uncle who owns a shop in stockton to rebuild them for me since im a klutz. Check his shop out its called Speedy Auto, pretty nice dude and always has returning customers.




The other pistons where pretty bad, but her is a picture of the new calipers. So pretty




An after image of me cleaning them up with fine grit sand paper.

One is done! One more to go!

Keep up the good work bro

SupremeDalek209

Thank you very much! I am trying lol

SupremeDalek209

Both ready to be installed, but not installing yet. I can already predict ill need a spacer just need to put one on and see what size of a spacer i will need. Hoping for at least 3mm.

SupremeDalek209

Havent installed the 11 inch rotor yet, but just want to see if the caliper will clear my rim. Surprisingly it clears well just rubs one side of my rim just a bit but not bad since it still allows it to spin freely. Going to just buy a 5mm spacer to have it clear with no issues.

SupremeDalek209

Just waiting for the spacers to come in now.

SupremeDalek209

Finally have my car to the ground. Needed 15mm spacers to cover the nsx calipers! These 15 inch rims dont cut it. When I have the opportunity im getting rid of these cps and my 96 spec wheels as well and getting some 16" wheels. I personally do not like running spacers. But at the moment i have to! <br/>Let me know what you all think of my new bbk setup!

Brakes look awesome, great cross of form and function. Also appreciate the fact you went with just slotted over drilled and slotted rotors. Those rims even benefited from the spacer imho. Bet its an awesome feeling having it back on the road.

Though the real question is how does it stop?! Is the bias weird with bigger front brakes and a OEM prop valve?

When I did the 11" upgrade I was able to fit the stock 96 ITR rims with a 3mm spacer. I'm using ITR calipers so idk if that makes a difference. Great build btw. I love all the oem goodies you have!

Your car is going great so far, I'm enjoying it.

SupremeDalek209

Thank you very much! Yea well I read online that the best rotors are the blank rotors, but I liked these since my oem rear rotors came slotted so I thought to do the same in the front. Yea the rims definitely benefitted having the spacer or else I would not be able to drive my car. It is a great feeling being able to drive my car again!

Well since these are new rotors and new brake pads I thought it would brake on a dime, but I read online I had to break in the new hawk pads to the rotor, and I dont drive my del sol much so it is getting better at braking the more I drive it. I tried braking it today from 50-10 and it did pretty damn good. A significant difference from the single piston even though I can tell the front brakes a lot more than the rear. I love it, but I am going to eventually upgrade to a 1" MC; yet not anytime soon since it's not really too much of a problem.

Thank you again!

SupremeDalek209

Well the thing is bro I used a 25T accord bracket instead of a 23T bracket. If I had a 23T bracket I would have more clearance, but I did not want to get a 23t bracket since it would require machine milling. Also the NSX Brake caliper is slightly bigger than the ITR Caliper. My 96 spec rims would have needed a spacer as well since I bolted up my 96 spec rim it didnt even move since the caliper rubbed.
Also thank you OEM is always best!

SupremeDalek209

Thank you very much appreciate the positivity bro!

I think I'm using the same bracket as you but not sure because I did not check the markings. I ordered the prelude bracket to match the rotors and didn't need to use washers or anything to get the caliper to fit. I also tried to fit the stock ITR wheels without a spacer with no luck but I was doing it just to see how much of the caliper would have to be shaved to fit without a spacer. Then I got lazy and didn't want to shave the caliper lol

SupremeDalek209

You probably do than! The 25T bracket didnt need any washers either. I think not shaving a caliper is best since it does not sound safe to me lol

I like the rotors and Calipers

Thank you!
