Default Caliper Brackets?

I am trying to throw a pair of these on my civic, i have had this set sitting around for awhile and was going to take the brackets off to get milled to fit the civic. However these kinda look like they already have been?? The are 23t brackets...Any input, as i dont know what they look like stock...

23T brackets will fit fine as long as you make sure that you get 23mm thick rotors.

they are milled for sure already (obviously). what i would do is throw on a pair of prelude vtec rotors on there and see if they fit. those are the best rotors if you still have the 4x100 suspension. they give you the 11" rotor size with the correct center bore and the correct thickness, etc. PM me if you need any help as i did a bunch of research for this in the past even though i never went through with it with my GSRs GL

Thanks bro, Got the rotors..just waiting on the pads now! I ended up going with the AEM pads, the car is street driven...nothing fancy. Anyone running the AEM pads w/ brembo rotors??

Those brackets are not milled or grinded. they are stock.

i would agree, the grinding would be completely across. its just brake residue surrounding the outline of the knuckle area.

aren't prelude vtec rotors 25mm thick (like S2K), don't they use the 25T brackets?

I use the Legend GS 28mm thick rotors with the appropriate calipers/brackets. The extra venting helps, but I do have to redrill to 4X100.
