#4 of 4 people with this setup. Its made crazy y0. Had to shave the caliper bracket / pads, but the stopping power is unbelieveable. Shortly, I plan to upgrade to an 11.1" rotor, re-drilled to 4 lug. Heres some pics:





Close clearance - pad hits the rotor hat (thus the grinding becomes neccessary)






This is compared to the GSR CALIPERS, which are still bigger than EX / SI making these CTR / ITR calipers HUGE





BARELY fits under the si wheels

Its PETEY PETE, y0!

I got them via a private seller on www.hondamarketplace.com. I have a guy in Georgia though also that has numerous sets.

actually, they dont have to be from japan. These are also the same front calipers as the USDM Integra Type R. If you really wanted to, you could go to your local Acura dealership and get a pair (although VERY expensive). CTR / ITR / ITR (USDM) all share the same front caliper.

I'm honestly not sure. Ill measure the CTR calipers if you want. Aren't the brembo calipers two piston? The nicest part about this setup is, I could take NSX calipers (2 piston) and bolt them on, since the caliper bracket is grinded. The drilled rotors im actually getting from a friend. BUT, you dont have to get ITR / CTR rotors, you can get them from a VTEC prelude (which should cost less) since they aren't "type r".

He grinded the caliper bracket, I did the pads. I could put s2k brakes / nsx brakes and I just might. The s2k actually shares the same pad size as the ITR, its just that the s2k brakes are lighter. I really want the NSX calipers since they are 2 piston.

I dont have any info on the eibach meet, let me know about it and Ill probably go.

that is sick. How long did it take you?
About 1 hour. The grinding took the most time as I was trying to be accurate.

cool man, but power slots and hawk pads offer alot of stopping power too. Ask my girlfriend who almost hit her face on my dash while I was bedding the brakes, lol.

Wow, I guess that would make for some stopping power, I got pull over last year and the cop asked how fast I was going because of all the nose dive I had, this was brembo blanks with stock replacement pads on type flex coils. I laughed and asked what his radar gun said, my scanner never went off so I knew he didnt have s**t.

Haha nice. And you can only imagine. I mean the comparison is to GSR calipers, which are already bigger than the OEM ex / si.

Looks sweet, so you had to grind the inner caliper bracket and the inner side of the pads?
