Default quick OEM brake upgrade question

what is the source car for the 25t front caliper bracket?

i just read it is hard to locate, so what kind of shim is necessary to accomodate legend calipers on the 28t bracket with av6 rotors?

Thanks, i am trying to figure out all the parts i need.

Source car: 98-02 Accord V6

Dont bother with shims. I wouldnt risk it and it generally isnt a good idea. Find an AV6 and take its brackets and calipers (25T).

what about the 96 v6?

are the 6g av6 calipers 2 piston like the legend?

Yes, i agree that the shims are a bad idea, thats what i'm trying to work around. Thanks.

I cannot say for sure that 5th gen brackets are 25T. If I were to venture a guess, I would say yes, they are 25T.

The only 2-piston calipers are from 94-95 Legend GS and NSX.
