Default NSX Caliper

where can I buy nsx calipers?

Any of you guys know the dimensions for the nsx rotors, i.e (diameter and width). And are these locking type calipers or floating?

Thanks

eBay, or the NSX Parts for Sale forum on NSXprime.

Any of you guys know the dimensions for the nsx rotors, i.e (diameter and width).
'91-96 front: diameter 282 mm, thickness 28 mm new, 26 mm minimum
'91-96 rear: diameter 282 mm, thickness 21 mm new, 19 mm minimum
'97-02 front: diameter 298 mm
'97-02 rear: diameter 303 mm

I don't know the thickness for the '97-02.

And are these locking type calipers or floating?
Floating.

Would you know the thickness of the legend rotors?

i don't know what a "locking" caliper is, but all Hondas (except those with 4 piston calipers) use a floating caliper, the NSX and Legend GS and Pilot/MDX/Ridgeline/CRV ones take a two piston floating, most of the rest use one piston.

The Legend took a 23mm thick rotor, the Legend GS with the 2 piston calipers took a 28mm thick rotor of the same diameter.

97-01 NSX caliper BODIES may be able to bolt onto the S2000 caliper bracket, however they may not, since you may need the 97-01 NSX brackets (not NSX-R brackets) or those from a 01 TL will bolt on. This is meant for a 28mm rotor opposed to your 25mm, but it should be fine.

Better than starting a new one, right?

Or... you could have revived a thread that was more recent (and more on topic) that already had most of the info you shared.
