Well, I completed one of the first NSX brake caliper swaps. Upgraded to the Stoptechs (thanks yoshi!), and now Im going to hopefully create a way to retrofit TL calipers.

First and foremost, I hope this doesnt become a debate if this is practical for anyone or not. I do this on my spare tire outside of work. I enjoy working on Hondas, specifically brakes and front ends!

Being a practical financial upgrade (for me at least) is out of the picture.

I will be updating everybody on my progress and findings. Nothing will be a secret. I want everybody to know how to do it. No secrets here!

Edit: Thanks Len for the great hookup!

 

hell yea!!

Looking forward to it

Im guessing there is no chance under a 15" wheel with the TL clappers?

 

Damn, you could of at least waited until you finished it, now everyone is waiting in suspense.

 

gooooooooooooooooo migs

 

Suspense is killing me too. So far I found out that the TL rotor and the caliper combined will not work under a stock Type-R wheel.

Like Kendall said, its not diameter, its offset.

 

I'm going to have to keep my eye on this one.

 

Dope. Is there a good amount of race pads available for the new TL's though?

 

What are the dimensions of these TL rotors?

 

Based of a tape measure, it was roughly 12.35"

 

I was expecting a full write up not some teasing little introduction

 

yeah migs whats the matter with j00?

thanks for taken me out to that plano pasta shop

What a tease!!!

 

heeeeeeeeelllllllll yeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh.

Now squeeze them biatches under 15 in rims. (crossing my fingers!)

 

can't wait for the full write up, i hope they'll at least fit under 16's!!!

same here

 

:DROOL: good luck.

 

someone read my mind...

 

What kind of offset do you need?

 

Yes! I'm also eager to see how this turns out!

 

stupid question, but do you think this is possible on a GSR or LS with different rotors?

 

I sincerely admire those with the ambition to put together Retro projects....this one seems to be and interesting challenge, good luck Migs

 

what offset will we need?

 

Sweet! By how much is it not clearing the OEM wheel? (5, 10, 15mm?)

 

Nice, glad someone decided to try this... Any chance of them fitting behind stock wheels with spacers?
