Default 96spec ITR Brake Upgrade

I'd like to just share my expierence on here with my Brake upgrade.

I used Prelude Vtec Rotors, Acura Legend 2 Piston Calipers and Brackets and Hawk HP+ Pads. This was a Direct bolt up to my 96 ITR. There was nothing required to do except bolt it up.

I did the same with Spoon calipers, Prelude VTEC rotors, and Hawk HPS pads. It's another direct bolt-on.

The calipers look nice (reman?), where did you get them?

not as easy like it worked on my car. you'd have to have the rotors redrilled to 4x100 and shave the caliper bracket i believe to fit your gsr

Good to hear. I plan on upgrading my brakes for auto x.
Not from the U.S. so I'll have to find them somewhere online.
