Default Integra Si Vtec (UK!!!) Brake Pads?

Hi,

I got a 1995 Integra Si Vtec which is the same as the Acura Integra GS-R.
Its time for my brake pads to be changed all round but I dont know which ones to buy simply for the reason that my car is imported from japan and was never sold in the UK so they dont make a pads specifically for my car#!!
Are there any other Honda Cars whose brake pads will fit on my car - Ive heard that ITR pads will fit on the front but Im not sure about the rears or even if the ITR thing is true or not.

If anyone knows what parts will fit or if they can find me a trace drawing of the shape of the fronts and rears it would be helpful - i cant get at my car cos i crashed it and broke the driveshaft assembly including all of the wishbones.

Also Im planning to go for EBC greenstuff pads on my standard rotors - I hear that these have a mixed opinion - does anyone have anything to quantify or qualify their opinions or infact does anyone have any opinions on these full stop.

Any help would be great. Thanks

RED

I've got an si vtec too, changed my front pads using oem honda pads through Honda New Zealand dealer. I think they used the pads that were oem on the Integra VTIR (NZDM si vtec equivalent), which is equivalent to U.S. GSR. Was there a UKDM vtec integra aside from the UK Type R teg? I dunno I guess you could use brake pads designed for US GSRs. And for my rears I used Bendix pads. So far all good. You could try asking your honda dealer to order pads from japan, but will cost (oem), and be a long wait (4 weeks for me), probably will be better off getting aftermarket pads from the net. Most parts are interchangable between GSRs and Si Vtecs, so dont stress
