Default NSX or Legend Calipers on a Integra LS?

Which year NSX/Lgend calipers do I use on my Integra LS if I were to do the NSX/Legend brake swap? Which rotors do I use NSX/Legend/Integra Type R/Prelude V-Tec? Which Caliper Brakets do I use?

Use Corrado G60 rotors or some redrilled prelude VTEC rotors. Any front NA1 NSX calipers will work or 94-95 Legend sedan GS calipers; if you want 2piston. If you want cheaper 1 piston calipers, go with ITR or accord wagon calipers.

NSX calipers seem to be the way to go, as the sequentially size pistons are setup for a forward mounted caliper application (caliper mounted toward the front of car). However, the pistons are smaller than on the Legend. The way I see it, if the NSX can make these calipers work, than so can any Civic or Integra.

Legend GS calipers are also two piston, but are setup for the rear mounted position, so if you don't swap sides with them on your Integra, they will not work properly. When you do swap them, the caliper must be unbolted to allow for proper bleeding, as the bleeder will be facing down with the them mounted to the spindle.

I believe you need a hubcentric ring for the Corrado rotors so they function properly. I'm currently working on piecing this setup together...
