Hi guys, I got a set of NSX front-rotors along with my NSX-calipers. I have not installed this yet.

I have read that the NSX rotor has the same measurments as the Legend-rotor, but is it the same offset!? - and will it fit together with the NSX caliper under a OEM ITR wheel?

Anybody using NSX-rotors and calipers? Please speak up!

 

Which year set of front brakes do you have?

 

https://honda-tech.com/zerosearch - please. there's even a topic on this on page 1 of this forum right now.

the bolt pattern and size (dia.) are fine... the thickness 'may' be another problem.

It is from the first generation NSX - I think it was a 91-model

My fault.

But why not just go with what works use ITR/Legend rotors?

Thanks! But I know how to use the search function - That is why my post count is so low - because I read and search more than ask questions...

to the H-T archive and search-function.

BUT I have never seen a post with someone using NSX-rotors on their ITR. Maybe it exists, but I have read quite alot of posts about the NSX-calipers

 

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=740612 - and another link inside that one.

I just dont know what the benefit of using NSX rotors would be. Am I missing something?

I got the NSX-rotors along with my calipers when I bought them - he had swithed to an AP-racing Big Brake kit (330mm) front and rear - and didn't need them... and they are almost new!

I can always order some new Legend rotors from Honda here in Norway, but I was hoping to use the NSX-rotors I allready have!

But cant this be accomplished with the 28mm thick Legend GS rotors, without the fitment "issues" of the NSX rotors?

RJ - who must surely be insane....

Benefit != Reason

 

no one said there is a benefit. he just asked if they fit. n00bster

I really think RJ should re-read the original post again.....and maybe one more time for good measure....
