Default NSX CALIPERS? "REAR"!

just wondering if anyone have used the NSX front dual-piston calipers for rear brakes on any 4gen or 5gen ludes?

they may fit but if you use the front brakes in the back you wont have an e-brake

Because there's nowhere for the e-brake cable to connect to?

you dont... its a rediculous modification.

good for the "bling" factor I guess, but if I saw someone with the NSX front brakes on the rear of their lude I would laugh.

yea i see no point in wasting money on somethin like that.... the stock calipers are fine unless your maybe youve got like a 12 sec prelude or somethin then you might wanna get better calipers.
