Okay I know that 96 spec brakes had Smaller rotors 14" vs the 15" on the 98 Spec (Front)

Question is Which Set of Brakes did the US Type R get? Did the Brakes Change between 97 and 2001?
Seems the US Spec R had the CTR 15 Wheels so I am wondering if the US got the Brakes from the EK9 or DC2?? WHile the 98 Spec DC2 has 16 inch wheels.

Anyone Know the answer? Or can anyone provide a search string that will yeild some results that answer the question at hand. Thanks in advanced.

 

EK9, 98Spec DC2R, USDM DC2R (all); same brakes.

96Spec DC2R, GSR; same brakes different bolt pattern.

 

Thanks

 

I am almost sure the EK9 Brakes are different than the 98 Spec DC2.

Honda OEM has a different PN for them.

Hmmm So the USDM Rotors are 15 inches in the front? Hmmm Must be a tight Fit with those 15 inch rims

 

32mm

And JDM Rotors are 15 inches .....? NOPE

 

The japanese refer to them as 15" rotors as that is the wheelsize needed to clear them, not because they are 15" in dia.

ok I see thanks

 

EK9 and DC2 (98spec) Use the Same Rotors 45251-sz3-000 However the Calipers are Different 45018(19)-sm5-000 and for the 98spec 45018(19)-ss0-a00

96 spec rotors are different and Calipers are different.

 

the integra just got the bigger wheels becuase of the shorter final drive.

 

I was bout to say that.

I heard its hard to get pads and rotors for the 96 type R setup when theyre worn out??
Is this true?? what pads and rotors do you use and where can i get them

 

the 96 spec jdm itr uses the same pads as the usdm gsr - which is the same as all usdm dc tegs non itr. Rotors are a little harder to come by but they are available from fastbrakes as well as hmotors
