Default legend brake swap???

whats up... i badly want to do a legend brake swap. i want to use the 2 piston legend calipers, with some aftermarket (EBC or brembo) drilled rotors. now, i know the legend calipers and clips will swap fine, but does anyone know how or where i can get rotors that are 11-11.2 dia. front, and 10-10.2 dia. rear, with the 4x100 pattern, and that will fit these calipers??? can i get them made from fastbrakes or some company like that or is there another car that has those diameter rotors with integra bolt pattern?? anyone who has done this swap please help out!!

okay, search didnt work last nite, so i got all the info i needed this morning! one question left tho! does anybody know if the legend calipers are better off being placed on the opposite side, aka left caliper on right wheel, vice versa on left wheel, or is it better to place thm on the proper side with the bleeder facing down??

fastbrakes.com has good deal because they can sell you front legend rotors (11.2 dia.) (28mm thick) already drilled for 4x100 pattern. for the rears, i want to use the civic si (ep3) rear rotors which are 10.2 dia. and are already 4x100 pattern, (would like to know the thickness) with the ep3 calipers, but i want to know if i can keep the e brake w/ that setup in rear. havnt got an answer on that yet. fastbrakes also sells the legend 2 pot calipers with the brackets already shaved which seems like it would save some annoying time on the upgrade. because in order to mount the calipers you have to shave down the brackets on them so they dont rub the rotor. as soon as i found out the specifics on the rear ep3 setup, im gonna give fastbrakes a call because i understand they are very helpful with these swaps.

I dont knwo if you wanna use the 28mm legen rotors. My friend was researching the same thing. some legends are "hub over rotors"

the hub is a thin plate with the lugs on it. the rotor goes on first then the hub goes over and bolts onto it. like the Accord wagon.

ITR redrilled will work they are cheap. Autozone is liek 21 each for duralast. tke them to a machine shop.
