Ok, I did the rsx-s front and rear brakes on my hatch a while back and everything went smoothly. plenty of write ups on here.

My question is, im doing a 5 lug conversion on my integra, i do not have calipers or rotors yet so I am wondering if RSX BASE MODEL front calipers will work with a 11.1" type r rotor. I know the rsx-s uses 11.8" rotors so does it mean that the base model calipers will work if I have the caliper bracket shaved? As for the rear calipers, if using the base model rears, i know to put the right on the left side and vise versa, will this work with itr rear rotors?

 

just do it the right way and but itr calipers

 

rsx base calipers are plentiful and cheap. care to find me a set of itr calipers? i have been looking daily

 

thought so.

 

just goto autozone, salvo's, pep boys etc, they all sell them, i know for a fact autozone sells them and they come with warranties

 

I think I still have my front ITR calipers lying in my garage somewhere. I know I kept them when I "upgraded" to the Legend 2-piston calipers.

The fronts probably have like 40-50k on them... if you're really interested I can dig around for them.

 

for some reason i think that if you buy calipers from advance or wherever, that it is the caliper only and no caliper bracket

 

From my reading, i heard the rsx uses the same brakes as the ITR. From the reading, they stated that even though the part numbers are different, they are the same brakes.

 

the type s or the base model with smaller brakes? does anyone know the size of the rsx base model front rotor

 

I am running the Wilwood kit for the base model RSX on my ITR. So I guess the base model RSX and ITR calipers would be the same?

 

To the OP, what did you find out?

 

I have some CRV/ITR front spindles with calipers, rotors, pads and partial shafts. These are the 36mm shafts like the JDM fronts. They are complete with upper A-arms and all.. They also have uncut brake lines. You can do a name search and find my for sale thread. Asking 150 for them plus shipping.

For the rears there is also a guy on here that goes by allmotorek4 that has direct bolt on rear disc rotors that are 5 lug and they will work with any DA, DC rear disc setup without upgrading to the ITR or bigger caliper. He is asking 100 a set.

So for 250+ shipping you could essentially have 5 lug swap given that you already the rear disc setup now. You can find rear disc at a yard for 75 or so. That is still WAYYYY cheaper than any DC2/ITR or CTR 5 lug conversion. Actually less than half the price.

 

A base RSX has 262mm front rotors.

 

not if you ask for loaded calipers

 

yea

 

yea

 

I never figured out anything about the base model calipers I just ended up buying front itr calipers and rsx-s rears. Had to do the classic L on R side and vise versa.

 

the accord, legend and ITR all use 23t calipers. i paid something like $50 a piece for a pair of 2000 accord v6 calipers. if the "itr" is hard to find, get them for another model. same honda part
