Ok, so I took a picture of the underside of a Acura MDX. Later I noticed it seems to take the same caliper bracket bolt spacing that most Hondas do. Its a 2-pot caliper and since It has the hanger under the teeth rather than over it, I was wonderin if you could put it on another car like that, such as the 99-00 RL or the RSX-S.


Its a big *** caliper, looks shiny, maybe aluminum if were lucky??

Okay, bump for ANY specs on the MDX caliper?

 

figure this out mike so i can put this set up on my EF
!bump!

 

on your 1900lb car? You're gonna brake your neck every time you stab the brakes, haha. I've driven a MDX, the brakes are GREAT, and its a two ton truck.

Precisely

 

i would love to know some specs on this

 

I don't think mdx brakes will just bolt up to a 99-00 RL. The earlier mdx's didn'y have the dual piston calipers. The newer mdx 2 pistons may bolt up to the earlier mdx's. The TL-S calipers would be a closer match.

 

TL-s what year?

 

'02-03 type-s. Im not sure if they will bolt up, i just know RL and TL front brake pads look similiar in shape and size.

P.S. the 2 piston mdx calipers are not aluminium

 

BUMP FOR MDX BRAKES because i dont have 2400.00 for 2 spoon calipers lol

bump because LOOK at those calipers....massive

 

I really woudl like to know about these

 

Look at the '05+ Odyssey brakes too. Their ~12 inch with twin piston calipers.

 

hmm, ill check that out. maybe the same 12.3" rotor that the new TL has.

 

i'd say the TL calipers would be better. in fact there's someone in the ITR forums trying to retro fit it in his DC2-R (migs?)

*ill post pics later when we-todd is back

 

Yes the TL calipers could work, in face they HAVE worked, migs did mount them on a ITR, tho it took some machining. But the TL calipers as we know are.......expensive, whereas in a few years time, used minivan brake calipers..i mean they arent gonna be in high demand.
