i'm assuming your trying to do some type of conversion??

you didn't mention anything in your post about this if you are. And, your post title doesn't make much sense.

I was checking if there was anything missing for the brake upgrade. since i have the 4cyl 6th gen, i was hoping the Accord 97 v6 rotors would be compatible with my 23T brackets that came with my Legend calipers. i just dont want to go through all of the work to later find out that the brackets won't fit the rotor or vice versa, etc.

Accord V6's use 25t brackets so you may have some clearance issues Since the number denotes in milimeters the thickness of the rotor...

does anyone know if i will have clearance issues? i thought the legend calipers/brackets and rotors would be a direct fit without any issues.

ok, I can understand you are in need of an answer but I don't feel there is a need to bump the thread that much, especially if the thread is still on the first page.

Well why dont you get 25t brackets?? That is what is recommended to use with Accord v6 rotors anyways. 23t brackets are only for when using Prelude or Type-R rotors. (I have Prelude vtec calipers and rotors on my Accord)
