They bolted up just fine on my integra. After i re-drilled the rotors to 4x100, and grinded the bracket down 1mm, of course

they're ITR rotors and prelude rotors btw... not NSX, but it's the same thing.

so you can use the legend rotors without having to modify the caliper bracket? i'll have to look into doing this myself.
