Default NSX Rotor on ITR 5 Lug

Hey guys just looking for some clear answers on this topic since I can't seem to find any.

I'm planning on doing a 5 lug swap on my civic and the seller threw in NA2 front and rear calipers. Now i know that if i use the stock itr rotor I will need the T23 bracket for the front and a fastbrakes rear bracket to be able to use the NA2 calipers, but if i use NA2 rotors (28mm T28) will i be able to use the calipers without the other brackets? Basically can i use the stock NA2 rotors and calipers on an itr5 lug without any modifications/complications?
I know that I will need to find a wheel to be able to clear it without rubbing.

Thanks in advance for the replies

A T23 and a T28 bracket are the same except that the T28 is cut for a wider (28mm) rotor.

Also is this for both the front and rear? Because I read that the rear NSX rotor were only 25mm?

I just wanted to make sure 100% before i go ahead and pull the trigger on new rotors and pads.

Thanks

yes your stock itr rotor will bolt right up to the FRONT nsx caliper.

as for the REAR nsx caliper, i have no idea.

NSX rotors and calipers vary by year. 96 and earlier are one thing, 97 and up are another. Rotors are either 21mm or 23mm. The diameter of the later rotors are 302mm and the earlier rotors are 282mm. The pistons on the 96 and earlier are 43mm. I don't know what the later ones are. That's much bigger than the normal rear piston size because it was a mid-engine car. This would severely bias the braking to the rear on a front engine car. Just be aware of that.

Yes i am aware of that, thanks though. Will be using an adjustable prop valve to set up the bias

The calipers are NA2
