Or at least point me where to look???
THANKS!!!

Try the NSXprime forum for NSX parts wanted.
And the calipers are the same for '91-96, so there's no reason to exclude '96 from your search.

I have a set up front calipers from my 92 NSX for sale. I upgraded to the stoptech big brake kit. It comes with hawk HP+ pads as well(roughly 500 miles on the pads).
PM me
I can take pics tomorrow if needed

Couple interesting points here:
- the above link defaults to searching for brake components for an 85 F-150.
- "Cardone" reman parts. I went to college w/ the founder's grandson. Whipptydo.

I don't get the hype about nsx caliper on other hondas. I've driven my friend's type-R with nsx caliper(i let him borrow mine
) and honestly I didn't feel any better/worse about the brake.

There's not much difference between the two setups (ITR front vs '91-96 NSX front). The brake pads are the exact same size and shape, and the rotor diameter (282 mm) is identical. The NSX rotors are slightly thicker than the ITR rotors, and the NSX calipers have two pistons instead of one.

Is there a difference? Yes. Is the difference major enough to bother with a swap? No, IMHO. If I were going to go to all the trouble of swapping brake calipers, I'd do it with a setup that provided larger diameter rotors and greater swept area for the pads, not with one that had the same diameter rotors and same size pads.

you didnt quote my BOLDNESS earlier haha..i wanted to point out the fact that you had mentioned, a big difference between ITR and NSX calipers is the 2-piston
what about for those with non-ITR's? the NSX caliper swap allows for prelude/ITR/legend rotors which should be bigger than non-ITR right? the reason i originally went with this setup was because it seemed to be an affordable solution to better brakes for a street car, rather than aftermarket setups which are 2-3x the price and may be a bit "much" for those who don't track/auto-x their cars

Those with smaller brake setups (like Civics and other Integras) may benefit from swapping with bigger brake setups from the Legend and Prelude, some of which are the same diameter and pad size as the ITR or NSX but are likely to be more numerous and easier to find.
