just get some prelude rotors and redrill them for 4x100 and you will be set

do not worry about the holes being exactly center because the center of the rotor is hubcentric

just use your old rotor as a template and drill away

 

ive thought bout redrillling rotors to my 4x100 lug pattern, but how dependable is tat...also cost??? but at the moment i would like to know if anyone has upgraded their 4 lugs to diameter size of legends/itr, if so where...thanks for the quik reply...

 

it is a very common conversion

i have now seen this same thing done on three cars now and one two are used as race cars, therefore i would think it works well.

the cost should be no more than maybe 130

th8ink about it
36 bux a piece for remanufactured calipers at auto zone
then you can get some 98 non SH prelude front rotors and redrill them , the rotors costing roughly 20 smackaroos a piece
VOILA big brake upgrade at a budjet price

 

i might end up doing it this way...

 

what reman calipers should I buy at autozone?

or you can get some Accord wagon calipers or just find a set of ITR calipers

 

vw corrado G60

 

i was just gonna say corrado

 

What year corrado would we be looking for? And are they already drilled for 4x100?

 

if i redrilled a 4x100 pattern into the 5 lug disc(legends)...would i need some bracket to hold up the legend calipers....

calipers bolt up evenly (with 10.2 rotors) but i have a feelings i would need a bracket for correct fitment if i were to use bigger rotors on the gsr knuckle of minds with legend calipers...anyone wit experience on this would appreciate the help...

 

redrills suck because they are always off ballance...

some one gave you a car that has the 4x100 bolt pattern and everything else the same with the ITR.

now i don't like the idea of re-drilling rotors and brembo doesn't suggest it either. but Emerika (ht username) runs them and has never said anything bad about them

now as far as needing a bracket for the fitmint, i went from 10.2 to 11.1 on a 97 ITR with this same conversion and the caliper bolted up just fine, you will have to watch the clearance from the caliper to the inside of the spoke on the wheel

 

i thought emerika said he gets crazy vibration at highway speeds? mabey it was someone else...

obviously it was someone else

 

yup, I've never had a problem with redrilling rotors.

AJ Racing also redrills ITR rotors to use Spoon calipers on 4x100 cars and they haven't had problems either.

And I believe Chad does also

so would these be the same diameter as the prelude, but with the right bolt pattern? also, would these just pop on or is there some work invovled to get them to work? thanks.

I got some vibration at highway speeds when using ITR rotors. People who redrill ITR rotors need to run hubcentric spacer because the ITR rotor hub is larger than the Civic/4x100 hub. I switched to Lude VTEC rotors, which are same hub size, and now there is no vibrations

 

yes chad does have them redrilled
on BOTH race cars

i am a local to the shop he works at and it was his cars i was referencing to

and lude rotors are the way to go, like just stated they are hubcentric with an integra/civic knuckle/hub

 

OK, if ya wanna just buy some, check here, they should have it, they do a lotta conversions/

ttt i wanna know that

 

supposedly every thing spec wise is right on.


now people are willing to throw around the name and stuff but i have never goten any more info then that out of them.

 

im doing the whole conversion, any questions, feel free to ask me, mine is done, minus the rotor drilling....NOTE: Have a machine shop do it, my first one came out really bad, even with using a 4 x 100 rotor on top clamped to it...it dont work well, spend the money and have someone that knows what they are doing redrill them. I just waisted like 30 bucks on a brand new 96 vtec blank
