I had to do some creative bending/flattening of the splash guards with pliers to keep it from rubbing the bigger rotors. But it will work, just looks like ass when finished. Meh, can't see it from outside view anyways.

Looking foward to your review...

I test the installation in a few days.

 

^installed it yet??

can i use any 17CL15VN calipers or do I need specifically the one from ITR 4x114? these calipers are also used on the CTR, Legend, accord, etc..

 

That one part number is used on several different cars...as you had found out. Thay are all identical...take it off of any of the cars and you will be good to go. The real IRT has 5X114 and not 4X114...

 

I dint kno the front rotors were that close in size..good info

 

I was lookin for an 11" disc..couldnt find it on the site..

 

The Acura Integra Type-R has 282-mm front discs...that equals 11.10-in...
is that close enough? If so, then you've found it!

 

no. to much snow at the moment

 

vielleicht bald

 

ohh..wel thanks, for the longest time i thought itr rotors were 10.3..thanks for the clarification.

I don't know of just a caliper upgrade...there are several manufacturers that make just a disc upgrade though. This thread shows a complete brake upgrade that will fit within a 15” wheel.

 

yes , i've seen it,
with a changing rotors aslo
too bad i've already bought those rotors ...

 

First step, balancing

damn sucks that neither itr nor dc5-r 5-lug isn't direct bolt on like on civics!

 

This is about as close to direct bolt-on as you can get…all you need is a specific disc.

I’m also very surprised that this thread didn’t make “sticky” yet…

 

Sorry to drag up this thread from the dead again, I'm just curious if any members with JDM/EDM fit/jazz were able to complete this "bold-on" modification with their GD1Fits. The stock rotors are smaller 240m vs 262mm USDM, I'm not sure if this affects anything?

I'm thinking of trying the 282mm stoptechs with some wilwood dynalite calipers (to keep off the unsprung weight vs the OEM type R calipers).

 

I know that this mod works on any USDM Fit (GD3 and GE8). I have no way of getting a hold of a GD1 since they were never imported into the US…not a USDM model.

Any Caliper that will fit an Acura Integra Type-R (DC2) will fit the Fit. So if Wilwood makes a direct replacement caliper for the ITR, you can use it.

 

Thanks for the quick response, and I realize you wouldn't have access to a GD1. I was Curious if any of the UK/Euro/Aussie/C'bean or Asian based members had tried your idea.

Not sure if Wilwood make a direct replacement, but I figure these brackets and calipers might just work with the slightly smaller stoptech rotors.

Honda probably used the same caliper for the GD1 and GD3…so, if the GD1 came with 240-mm rotors and the GD3 comes with 262-mm rotors, the 310-mm rotors replace the 262-mm. 310 – 262 = 48-mm. Since the GD1 came with 240-mm, for the caliper to fit, you need 240 + 48 = 288-mm rotors. Since StopTech makes 282-mm rotors, the math is right. 282 will definitely work in lieu of 288. If you can’t make a longer bracket, I’d try it.
