Default calipers will this work

i have already up graded rotors and was wondering if any year of prelude calipers will fit on a 90 accord LX. i have found a bunch of really good calipers but none will fit on my year.

All calipers found on Preludes can also be found stock on particular models of Accords - such as the Nissin 17CL15VNs from 4th-gen VTECs and all wagons, or the Akebono calipers from 5th-gen Preludes and 6th-gen Accord V6es.

You just need to source the proper mounting brackets. What rotors and knuckles are you using?

AccordinglyDone in their Stop/Drop/Roll section has a compiled listing of all calipers/rotors/brackets that work.

90-97 are all similar in the braking/suspension dept btw

*note* excluding the wagon and v6 models, but they do bolt up.

Haha, well kinda sorta.

TAS Auto has an aftermarket kit.

the calipers that i found are endless four piston. i kinda wanted these ones because it has more power than the stock one piston slider. so from what you guys are saying i can get the caliper than just make a bracket that'll work?????
