Default Acura Legend brake swap question

Ok, so i bought 1995 Acura Legend GS brakes to swap my integra brakes out from and they are a single piston design. Not that I'm complaining, but has anyone else experienced this?

Did Raybestos run out of Legend calipers and start re manufacturing prelude calipers?

Help...?

Take them back. They should be dual piston from a 95 GS.

Seriously? What car did they come from then?!

The Nissin printing says 23T - 17CL15VN

ok, i got the Raybestos RC10202qs brake calipers. When i go to their website they say that they are interchangeable between the RL, TL and Legend. Obviously i got either some RL or TL calipers then. F--k, i hate dealing with this, i just want this brake upgrade nightmare to be over.

Since these seem to be interchangable, is there really going to be a difference from a single piston and dual piston design? Just wondering.

You can see what was stock here:
http://www.acuraoemparts.com

I'm not sure that the brake pads are the same between the single and dual piston calipers. (The part numbers are different.) The GS has dual piston calipers, the LS has single piston. Get what you paid for.

You can always go to a salvage yard or search http://www.car-part.com

I personally have the single piston calipers on my '97 from an Accord V6 wagon (same as ITR).
