GSR dc2 - converting the front brakes. Need help!!!
Hi guys!
I've been doing the search for about 30 times and read a lot 'bout brake conversions for GSR's and ITR's.
From what i've learnt the best solution would be NSX\Legend GS brake calipers + ITR\Legend\Prelude brake rotors. Hopefully i'm right - please correct me.
I want to use Honda OEM parts (where possible) and look for 100% bolt-on installation.
Still there are some questions left unanswered for me:
1. What CHASIS number has this Legend GS?
KA7, KA8?
2. Will NSX\Legend GS caliper install be 100% BOLT-ON onto GSR?
Or ANY additional parts\work is needed?!
3. If i want to stay 4x100 - what are possible solutions (EXCEPT 'FastBrakes' and\or ANY redrillings)?
I'm intetrested ONLY in bolt-on's!
4. HOW EXACTLY may i jump to 5 lug (like on ITR's)?
What parts\work is needed?!
As far as i've learnt you can't just install a 5 lug (5x114,3) hub onto GSR -
as wheel bearings are NOT the same size.
In fact, the ITR's wb's are the same as Preludes...
I would VERY MUCH appreciate your comments and help on this topic!
Thanks in advance!

KA7, KA8?
Answer: KA8 im pretty sure!
2. Will NSX\Legend GS caliper install be 100% BOLT-ON onto GSR?

Answer: Yes Additional Parts will be need I know do research on this topic to find out I know the calipers just dont bolt on.
The Last Two questions im not certain on either so I will leave them to another to answer.

THANKS A LOT!
Very informative!
The only thing which still left unanswered is 5-lug BOLT-ON conversion...
Is that possible?!
What about using CR-V hubs?
