Default Tried to fit the 11.4" rotors to ITR...

The rotors fit fine and the bracket lined up the caliper well, but...the stock ITR caliper is too tall and the pads have too much overhang. The good news is that if you wanted to use the 11.4" rotors all you need to do is get a pair of regular Integra rear calipers, and it will bolt on.....

You wouldn't want to do this because the regular Integra rear pads are smaller than ITR one's.

fyi smaller pad area isnt going to make that much of a difference. i believe the piston size is larger on the ITR caliper than the non ITR caliper tho. that DOES make a difference. pad area usually means pad life. if you have a huge pad, itll just last longer than a small pad braking at the same diameter (affective diameter that is!)

anyway brian...still waiting for more info so that we are not lost.
