Default question reguarding calipers, disks, and brackets

ok so many of you know i own an ef(ya ya i know) and i have already converted it to dc2 front spindles and have the crx si rear disks. many of us know that when converting to dc series, they require you to go bigger on the rotors and calipers. whats the best combo that can be adapted from any other car(as in terms of calipers/disks) made by honda onto my car?

and what bracket should i use. keep in mind the rears(once again) are crx rear disk setup

Common upgrades include ITR, Legend GS and NSX calipers with 11" rotors and 25T caliper brackets. I believe all of these set ups will work. You'll need a 15/16 master cylinder from an 88-91 EX sedan or 1" MC from an ITR.

I've spent ~$500 so far on my NSX brake upgrade, but you could get do it for less if you can find most of the parts from a salvage yard.

Acura RL 4 piston calipers are another OEM set-up that might be worth considering. There are several members on the forum that use these brakes.
