Is it possible with standard sir nuckles?

I have a 23T caliper bracket lying around here so my cuestion is: does the 2-piston legend caliper fit this bracket?? and do i have to modify much?

Nice! You guys have all sorts of crazy parts. Good deal though that is a nice link.

 

i didnt find anything about legend 2-piston calipers on a CRX SiR:/

Im pretty sure this is what your looking for.

 

So if Legend caliper bracket fits ITR knuckles....it will also fit CRX SiR knuckles???

The bolt spacing is the same. Yes!

 

and they should also fit civic EX knuckles, eh?

 

i have nsx calipers with redrilled rotors on my 91 hatch...have to grind down the bracket to fit...use 28t brackets...ill try to find pics

 

ok pics are at http://www.tamparacing.com search for username r91si...there is a post i made about custom brake pics (title of the post)

 

hmm just FYI, nsx calipers have smaller pistons than the 95 GS legend calipers.

i just say this because i thought someone said they were the same, without the embossed "NSX" letters.


the legend pistons are actually bigger.

40/36mm NSX
42/38mm Legend

 

yea i know...i had legend calipers but got rid of them for the nsx calipers...for the "bling"...and they are lighter

 

hmmm are they aluminum? or just generally slightly lighter due to size?

think piston size...anyway they have more than enough braking for a 2000lb. car!!!!

Because they are alum.....and yes, they will fit EX knuckles.

 

actually i asked my nsx expert, theyre not aluminum.

 

Does anybody know if i can build my brakes with this parts? will it work?

Honda Legend 2-piston Caliper
Honda Odyssey/CRV 23T bracket
Rover ZS 180 282mm 25mm thick and 4*100

of course aim going to run 15" or 16" wheels....

bump

 

no you need 28t bracket and 28 mm rotor...i ran into this problem myself...the legend/nsx caliper is wider than a caliper designed for a 23t bracket...you will risk popping the caliper pistons out of the caliper when the pads start to wear if you use a 23 rotor...and no a 28mm rotor does not fit into a 23t bracket

 

But i have a 25 thick Rover ZS180 rotor....wouldnt the legend 2-piston calipers work with that??

So what are they? They're like 1/2 the weight of a comparable sized Legend caliper.

 

i just called science of speed and they said its just cast iron.

 

bump it up
