Anyone running NSX calipers with rota slipstream in a 15"? Any fitment problems? What about stock ITR wheels? I have a chance to pick up a set for $200.

you will need to do some minor shaving to get them to fit.

 

talk to migs, he has the nsx calipers on stock ITR wheels

 

Matt, the calipers should fit fine as long as they are 91-96 NSX. The later style NSX's had a different sized piston 97+, making wheel spacers mandatory.

1) It does not require any shaving to make them fit on your ITR knuckles.

2) If you use your stock ITR rotor (23mm), you will need about 5mm of shimming and you will ALSO need the NSX caliper bracket bolt. Runs about $4.xx from the dealership/piece.

3) If you use the Legend GS rotor (28mm), you will only need about 1-2mm shimming (one fat washer). You can also utilize your STOCK ITR caliper bracket mounting bolt.

4) They will tuck away under your ITR wheels just fine, I dont see why they wouldnt tuck away under Rotas.

Let these pictures explain the rest and let me know if you got any question.

And if you do not want to purchase those calipers, then let me know and I will buy them, thanks

Nothing by fact, its mostly be feel. IMO, I can stop a hell of alot better than before

Great, Thanks for all of the info, The calipers are currently on a 97ish prelude with 16" rotas. My friend is putting the car back to stock for sale. They come complete with every thing to make it fit and they have been powder coated a charcoal color. I can't pass up the deal.

Thanks again.
