1) They need type-R brackets to bolt to the spindle.
2) Type R brackets depend on the fact the type-R has a wider hub.
3) Type-R calipers are designed for an 11" rotor.
If you have the brackets AND already have the upgraded brake spindles (EX or Integra Brakes) you can make it work by milling .080 off the mounting brackets and re-drilling 11" prelude rotors down to 4x100 holes.
That's the setup I have on my car. It's sweet.
