wuts an nsk?

Anyhow.... you're incorrect on both counts.... all DC2 Integras regardless of trim - from the factory had NISSIN/Honda calipers. The 98spec ones are bigger.

They can be interchanged with mild to moderate massaging.

Thanks guys. I did not know about the dc5r brakes.
"Brembo ventilated disc (300mm) with aluminium 4-pot caliper"
Does that mean the caliper is Brembo too? Or just the rotor?

Really? I saw no mention of it on the Acura website.. and google mentions this..
"The brakes on the RL are manufactured by Advics Co. Ltd., a subsidiary of Sumitomo Electric Automotive, that designs and manufactures brake systems and components. They have operations in the U.S., Japan, Thailand, Indonesia and China."

Not the greatest picture, but you can tell. Let me know if you want me to take this down Penpen.


You may be right about the RL, but I thought in Migs attempt to put them on an Intagra he found a brembo marking on the back of the caliper. Heck I dont' know.

I don't know squat either. Never seen a DC5R in real life, that I know of.

IIRC the TL and 350Z/G35/STi use the same Brembo 4pot caliper. While the RL uses something a little different, still a 4pot though, not even sure if its Brembo.

For the thread starter, '96 spec ITR's used the same caliper as the rest of the integra family, while the '98 spec ITR uses a larger caliper to accomidate the larger rotor, very similar, if not the same as, the '97-00 Prelude.
