Default Acura Legend Calipers... 2 piston? can it be bolted to ITR? is it better than a ITR caliper?

I heard the Acura legend calipers are identical to the nsx caliper.. they are two piston??? can you bolt it to a ITR suspension? and is it worth it? Are they better calipers than the ITR calipers???


this will be going on a EK

I know that they work on DA integras, not sure about the 3rd gen.

the legend and nsx calipers have pros and cons... double vs. single piston, costs, material makeup, low cost vs. high cost, sleeper vs. bling factor, etc., etc.... get the legend calipers... more bang for the buck!

need redrilled 4x100 rotors for your brake upgrade?

Wrong, and no.

The Legend calipers are similar to ITR calipers. The Legend GS calipers are a two piston caliper than can be attached to an ITR bracket with the addition of a 5mm shim. The NSX caliper is not aluminum. It is a two piston caliper with heat vanes and NSX letters. The pistons are a little smaller compared to the Legend GS caliper. It too could use a 5mm shim when bolting to an ITR caliper bracket. They are a bit heavier and on road use, there is no noticable difference (I have ran both).
If you need these and/or their milled brackets, PM me.
