Default ITR Caliper + Rotor + Soft Line Question for my Civic

Hey:

First of all, I have read the brake expert article about brakes but I had some additional questions.

1. For my front brakes, I am running ITR calipers with a machined 23T bracket on some EX knuckles. Can I use my stock 96-00 brake lines with these ITR calipers? I think I remember reading somewhere that the lines need to match the caliper but I can't say for sure.

2. I had planned on running redrilled Prelude VTEC rotors on my car, but a friend asked why I don't run 11.8" RSX Type-S rotors. Would these fit my application if I had them redrilled?

3. I have read that the 97-01 GSR master cylinder is the same as the ITR master cylinder and I have also read they are different. Can someone confirm that they are both 1" masters that will bolt to my stock brake booster?

Thanks!

1) As long as the banjo bolts fit and the lines are not stretched, then yes.
2) No. That caliper and bracket are designed for a 282mm rotor.
3) They are 1" bores. I do not know if they will work with your booster. Perhaps using both the booster and MC is a better option.
