Check them against a set of lude carriers, but I'm 99% sure they should fit ok. The ATR ones certainly do :)

They will.

I have a set of Prelude carriers on my NSX calipers at the moment (same as Legend) but they're coming off. If you want them let me know Bri and I'll get them off at the weekend.

just remembered what the garage said when i asked them to look at the brakes....
they said it was likely to be master cylinder as when brakes are not serviced regularly a build up or ring can form around the piston itself especially as in my case the discs and pads had been allowed to wear right down and fluid had gone off due to not being changed. They rekoned that the mc being 20 years old had lasted 2 to 3 times longer than could be expected.
Ive already replaced the two bleed nipples on the front calipers but might check them again for any leaks.
