Default DA 11.1 brake upgrade

I have read that thread for the last 30 min but I am still not clear as to if you use the 25T caliper mount? When you are use the accord calipers with prelude rotors on DA knuckles do you need the 25T mount?

you can use the 25t or 23t, the 25t needs 3mm of machining, im not 100% sure but i think that is what i get from that thread

...on a 90-93 integra da front knuckles, to upgrade to 11" rotor set-up, you'll need:

*itr calipers, stamped 17cl15vn (can be found on older vigor, cl, tl, rl, legend, accord, cr-v, integra type-r, prelude, odyssey...i'm sure i missed a few), legend 2-piston calipers or nsx calipers

*23T, 25T or 28T brackets

*+97 prelude rotors

*new brake pads

because of rotor offset, you'll need to machine your brackets (23T, 25T, or 28T will all work) and remove aprox 2-3mm or 1/8 where the bracket mates with the knuckle. you'll also need to re-drill your rotors to 4x100 since there isn't an 11" rotor available with the correct offset. check the link below (although this is for a dx knuckle w/ 10.3" rotor), the premise for your 11" rotor set-up w/ a bigger caliper is the same:

for 11" 4x100 rotors:

pm brakeexpert, he machined my brackets & does great work
