aftermarket calipers may actually be worse than your OEM ones...

Since the spoon caliper is a direct replacement for an ITR caliper ive been told all thats needed is EX/DA knuckles, Spoon calipers and the appropriate rotor etc

you need to use ef8/9 , da, ex, knuckles.

spoon 4x100 rotors , or redrilled prelude rotors.


and then u need to machine 3mm off the calipers to get the proper rotor offset.
