Default mugen caliper kit any inputs?

i noticed the mugen caliper kit just the other day at kings motorsport. yet no one seems to rock it. i didnt even know they exist. they look really similar to stock ITRs. doesnt anyone have any experience with them? are they any good? are they same as stock with mugen spray paint?

thanks in advance

They use s2000 calipers. The rotors have special cooling vanes, and I would hate to have to replace on. A couple people in the type R forum use this kit. Try searching for it, with that forum only.

edit: I'm feeling nice today. Put on your reading glasses:

You`ll have to run a 16" wheel with them (usually).

Hmmm, never had a problem with the original brake parts that came with my Honda, when I had it. And I never really got to the stage where I was using the "good" pads.

These parts...I assume they cost a fortune?
