Porsche 944 brake calipers
If you were to do this, I wouldn't use the standard 944 calipers, I'd use the calipers from the Turbo model, or maybe from the 928. It can be done, but you'll have quite a chunk of money invested in custom mounting brackets and custom rotors that both fit the Integra, and are the required thickness for the Porsche calipers (which Brembo manufactured).
supposedly you can use the 4 piston brembos from the boxster...cooltech used to sell a upgrade that came with these, but thats about all i know for fabrication.

i think it would be cheaper/easier to do a 5-lug upgrade from the Type-R and then do a Legend or NSX caliper/rotor upgrade to that. it would all fit and be a great braking system.
hell, just good pads will do you wonders.

i already have the brake calipers they were 100, i can fabricate the brakets. All i need is the rotors, im going to see if i take the porsche rotors and drill new holes to fit them in. Its going to be cheaper than buying 1,000 brake kit.
And they are going to look sick

Not sure what rotors were used tho..

no, im not putting them in b/c they are going to be sick , i need them to stop ill be doing 130mph in the 1/4 mile and i need to stop, but i don't want ot spend 1000 on a kit when i can use these calipers and make my own custom kit
I have to emphasize the importance of correct rotor thickness. I suggest you contact a company like Brembo and have them custom make you a set of rotors that will fit your car, and are the proper thickness. Then the only problem would be mounting, which could easily be sorted out with a good welder. You may want to take it to a performance brake specialist to see if the brake balance needs to be adjusted and to see if you need a different size master cylinder. There are a lot of things to think about when upgrading brakes, that's why most people just leave it to the professionals and buy a premade kit.

actually its fine to redrill them, i run redrilled ones w/p a problem and so do plenty of racers.

I'm going to have to waive the BS flag until you give us details of your car along with pics.
A 130 trap speed in the 1/4 equates to low 11s or high 10s.
