Please Help!
I picked up front 5 lug brakes from a friend who told me they are ITR but he's not 100% sure. They could either be JDM ITR or +97 5th Gen. Prelude. How can I be sure which one it is???


thanks in advance!

 

Shouldn't you have asked this before you bought em? I heard the prelude vtec and ITR were the same so I wouldn't be too worried.

 

I got them for free. But If they wont fit I will need to order the front only since I already have the back setup.

Anyway, the calipers and rotors I think are the same but I dont know if the knuckle will fit or not. I cannot use my stock GSR knuckle because the hub is a 36mm which means the setup either came from a JDM ITR or +97 5th gen. prelude.

 

can a 5th gen front brake setup bolt on to a DC2 while still using the knuckle setup?

same thing i'm trying to find out basically.. are the calipers the same for an ITR and a prelude? or does it all mount differently?

 

The calipers are the same, but the mounting plate thing is different. If you try and use the mount from a Prelude the caliper will rub on one side. If you reuse the ITR mount everything else is identical.

You should be able to machine the plate or maybe use a small spacer if you have to.
