i know they are a direct swap for the itr, you will probably have to use redrilled prelude rotors for 4x100 NOT the nsx rotors, and use integra spindles. it should work then, search in the rr/ax forum they have this covered many times

I have the legend front brakes on my 00 hatch, you'll need 99'-00' SI spindles or 94'-00' integra spindles, and you'll need to mill 4mm's off of the back of the caliper brackets. I had my brother do it, he's a machinist so it was nothing for him! and you'll need 95' prelude v-tec rotor's redrilled to the 4x100mm bolt pattern! that should be about it.

You can use the NSX front calipers on the EX Sedan 90-91 Knuckles or the DA Integra Knuckles (which I have not used personally) you can also bolt the ITR, Accord Wagon, or Legend calipers on there. You will have to take 2.5mm out of the brackets to make them work correctly. You can redrill the Prelude rotor 4x100 youself with a drill press. You will have some good brakes. I would also recomend using the a non ABS Integra booster/MC (260V) that way you don't have to change brake line fittings.

I have this setup on my CRX I have the EX/ITR/Non ABS Booster/MC/Prelude rotors and it is great out on the road course tracks.

As far as the rears I have no clue.

Okay, we are talking about a CRX in which not the case of what you said will work. Great info for a newer Civic though.

and it won't work because????? if ur so smart then you would know that all civic/integra suspension parts are interchangeable from about 88and up to 00+ on civics and 90 and up to 01 on integras! so tell me where i'm in the wrong!!!!!!!

there is a user on here or ef-honda that has nsx calipers on his hatchback. i have photos of the setup it's a dark greenish one with 5 spokes.

in the braking dept on my car i'm still undecided on what to do
fastbrakes 11" upgrade may be easier but i have not looked into it much yet.

This is not true. 92 plus civic, and 94 plus integra front suspensions are quite a bit different. The upper A arms are completely different, the lowers are way different too. Heck the shocks and shock forks are even different. You might be able to bolt portions of this setup on, but the geometry is not going to be correct. As for the rear suspension, the LCAs are the same, I beleive the shocks are longer, and the trailing arms I've heard mixxed info on them.

I'm running the same setup as the Toad in the front, with 90-93 Teg brakes in the rear. As for 90-93 Teg spindles on the front. They add positive camber to an EF chassis, some people run them on lowered efs, and use the change to compensate for the neg camber associated with the lowering. I've never used them I always use EF EX spindles to keep everything in OEM specs and geometry, then I use progress camber kit to dial in the allignment. My setup works great and I would reccomend it to anyone. The NSX calipers from what I've gathered will bolt on also, with a little milling, of the caliper mount.

BTW that is one beautiful hatch.

Your lowered right? From all that I've gathered the DA knuckles will basicly compensate for that, by adding a few degrees of positive camber.

And, for those weight watchers out there, that set-up is lighter than the NSX/ITR/DA/Stock brakes. Especially with the Wilwood rotors.

He is correct here is the wieght differnce between my stock brakes and the wilwood and if i remember right the nsx setup is heavier than hell at 25lbs. The reason why i went with these brakes are because of the wieght i road race my car.

AND it's all unsprung weight Thanks for taking those measurements. I had been told that it was roughly 20 lbs between all four sides, and I knew the ITR/NSX were heavier still.
