    I found some Accord Hatchback Front Suspension...but I was told those calipers and rotors are the exact same as Type-R's...and I was wondering if they'd fit my GSR Knuckles???

    Can anybody give me the Honda-perf something link...Honda Hybrid Page. I think the upgrade stuff is on their.

    I have the SiR steering knuckle which is exactly thesame as the civic EX steering knuckle

    found used Accord Aerodeck VTEC calipers (which fit even better than ITR or normal Aerodeck calipers: no grinding needed) and some used 1992-1996 Prelude VTEC rotors (redrilled at 4x100)

    Fits like a charm! The calipers are HUGE compared to the SiR calipers. Best of all they even fit behind offset 45 rims smile

    (15" minimum)

    Yeah but I meant the Type-R setup though. In comparision to the Accord HB Calipers and Rotors...is the prelude setup that large though.

    Sorry PC was meshed up pretty bad so no internet for a couple of days......

    The Prelude rotors are exactly the same size as the SiR (10,3") but they are WAY thicker!
    The ITR (or accord aerodeck) calipers fit perfectly onto the SiR (EX) knuckle and just looking at this setup compared to stock SiR you do not have to be a gearhead to figure out this setup just rocks!

    BTW using ITR rotors will actually require using the ITR hubs.....they fit VERY good in the front but the rear ones just won't fit the trailing arm... so forget it.....

    BTW 2 my Polish friend has finished his b16a1 to b18c6 swap and I will post this soon on my site......
