Default NSX Callipers

I've just bought some NSX brake callipers to fit to my gen 4 lude. I remember seeing an article once on how to fit them (think it was on the recently deceased HondaPrelude Community forum).
Has anyone got the write up that they could either direct me to or email to me?
Thanks in advance

the writeup I remember is how to fit the Acura Legend calipers on the 4th gen. Never heard anything about the NSX calipers before, sorry

Yeah, people originally used NSX's, but they found that Legend calipers were much cheaper and were better than NSX calipers. But search, there used to be a writeup on preludeonline.com or hondaprelude.com, b/c i got it printed out at home.

the legend and nsx both bolt up but the nsx's look better but the legend calipers have bigger pistons i think by like 2-3mm on each piston, anyone looking to get rid or a set of either?

Legend calipers may be slightly larger, but they are not going to be "better" than NSX calipers. FYI, we sell Legened, NSX, and Prelude VTEC calipers if any of you are looking to upgrade

Only real differences between the two is the NSX calipers have vanes or bumps on the surface to increase surface area which helps with cooling. Plus the NSX ones don't have to be mounted with the bleed bolt on the bottom. On this forum someone said you can swap sides, but I'm not 100% sure of this since the lines will possibly be messed up.
