Default Do 99 EX come stock with 11 inch rotors? (newbie questions)

I got this weird question...it says that on the Fastbrakes website that for Honda Civic using a 9.5 rotor, I think mine is just that but it give an upgrade to an 11 inch rotor using calipers from an EX but I have an EX..so does that mean I have a 11 inch rotors on my car?

If I am remember correctly, the cars that would have the 11 inch rotor would VW corrado's? Right or wrong?

Lets just say I have 9.5 inch rotors, could I use my stock EX caliper and mount an 11 inch disk to my car with no modification?

Lastly is how do I measure the size of the rotor I have?

In other words..I AM very confused!!

Thanks everyone for helping!!

No.

Right.

If you have an EX, you have 10.4" brakes, not 9.5". But either way, without a relocation bracket of some sort for the caliper, you can't do that.

Lastly is how do I measure the size of the rotor I have?
Get a ruler and measure across the diameter of the rotor. Make sure you go through the center of 2 of the holes across from each other to make sure you're centered.

Thanks for the website, I already visited that

so basically all I need is the adaptor kit for the 11 inch rotors in which they offer at fastbrakes.com...

I can get the Rotors from where I live for cheap...

So what year does the VW corrado have to be and is there a specific model I have to get these 11 inch rotors from?
