Default NSX Rotors and Calipers install help & tips plz!!

Hi guys,

Have any of you installed the NSX calipers AND NSX rotors on your ITR?

I have just bought a set of very light used (almost new) NSX calipers, rotors and pads today! Got a really sweet deal. I will try if they'll fit under my standard Euro spec. rims this weekend.

Got any "inside information", practical advice, knowledge I should have in the back of my mind during installation!?

I have read quite a few posts on NSX caliper installation - i think this will be very helpful, but regarding the rotors - But it seems almost all of you have used a Legend rotor instead of a NSX rotor. I don't have acsess to used Legend rotors here in Norway, so I will use the NSX ones I got in my deal.

-----------------
Some of the info I found...

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by Migs &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">4) NSX front brake rotors + Legend GS rotors have the same diameter, AND width. The only difference is the offset of the hub. It appears using the NSX rotor would push the disc out a little bit more. This would require using more washers. Using the Legend GS rotor would be the most effective way to go.<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">

some guys just put the calipers on, with the stock ITR rotors, and it still brakes fine, but one side might be pressing harder than the other side, but the person just shaved off 5mm before installing the pad that was closer, so the pressure was the same on both sides. Still had lots of meat on them from what I understand.

No pad shaving is required.

The offset is not even close to working.

Use Integra/Legend rotors.
