ITR calipers and rotors
Can I use ITR spec rotors to mate with the ITR calipers on a regular Integra?
If so, what other rotors can I use? MB 190E?
This is a concern to the Integra knuckles clearance issue.

Re: ITR calipers and rotors (Project X)
there are many threads on this subject.
to use ITR front calipers and ITR front rotors on a 4 lug Integra, you need to do a few things.
1) drill a 4x100 pattern into the rotors, you can use a oversize drill as the rotors center on the center hole, not the lugs.
2) mill or grind off about 3mm from the caliper (aka caliper bracket) where it mates to the steering knuckle.
3) if you use ITR rotors you WILL need to use hubcentric rings from http://WWW.FASTBRAKES.COM to fit between the large center bore in the ITR rotor and the small center protrusion on the Integraa steering knuckle (where the axle nut is). You do NOT need the hubcentric rings if you buy the more expensive Prelude '94 VTEC rotors since these Prelude rotors have a center bore the same size as the Integra 4 lug rotors have.
ITR rotors can be found for like $30 each at Autozone and some other spots, the Prelude '94 VTEC rotors were never cheaper than $75 each from what I had found. So of course if you can buy ITR rotors and hubrings from fastbrakes then you will be much better off than me... with my $150 in rotors.
to get this stuff to work on a non Integra, like on a '92-'95 DX/CX Civic, you need to swap over Integra 4 lug steering knuckles.
who needs da' five lug swap, BAH!

Re: ITR calipers and rotors (owen_the_soyboy)
What about the rear ITR rotors and calipers? Are they just bolt-ons provided that I've redrilled the rotors?

Re: ITR calipers and rotors (Project X)
rears are a different story.
nobody has info on the rear itr rotors swapping onto anything as far as what I have read in the last 4 years.
for more rotor in the rear, use a fastrbrakes 11" rear upgrade. I did on my integra gsr sedan and it helped reduce nosedive under hard braking on track, but when I tried them on my civic hatch it was too much rear brake. For an integra, if you need more rear stopping power, use a more aggressive pad in the rear.
