These bolt straight onto prelude hubs and can be used with 23mm disc's (like i did) with prelude caliper carriers. i do have the NSX carrier aswell if you wise to use 28mm wide discs (not sure how much work that would be). They also use Prelude pads

these calipers have had a small amount of the cooling fins ground down a little (hardly worth mentioning tbh) so they would fit under 15's.

NSX calipers can be mounted in 2 ways; either L/H on the R/H side (as i did) so the brake bleed nipple is at the top, or on the correct sides so the bleed nipple is at the bottom. the latter option means the caliper would have to be removed to be bleed, not a massive issue TBH. This is due to the different sizes of piston fitted to the calipers ;)

i never had an issue on track days or on the ring with the first option!

Just realised just how dump my camera is :oops:

if there is someone interested i will pull the off clean them up and post some better pictures up with the birds camera, if she ever finds it!

Please don't offer me silly money as they can go on the new lude! :roll:

only reason i'm selling is to give me a little imputes to sort my big brakes out !

Discs are balls i WILL not sell them! they look nice but are craked to buggery!

pads are going on the new one!

Offers around the £200 mark! Collected.

I can arrange postage at buyers cost! Payment by paypal as long as fee's are covered!

Located in Thetford, norfolk

Cheers

Phil

So if these fit the prelude carriers on standard discs...

Would they fit accord type R carriers and go on the bigger discs?

Quite interested in these! NSX calipers sound pretty gangster :roll:

Few questions first though...

Are they actually any better than Prelude ones?
Is your guideline price including carriers?
How soon are you looking to be shot of them? :-?

personally i think they offered more feel than lude ones, they would lock up my wheels at over 70mph with r888's on, did it once in the damp in triple figures (on a totally private road) and it did the same, i did crap myself!

yep they will come with prelude carriers and i am pretty sure i still have the nsx ones in y big box of prelude bits!

not in a rush to sell TBH mate, just using the funds for the new brakes!

Well if they don't go in the next 2-3 weeks (waiting for a tasty tax rebate to come through!) then I'll take them, seems Jamin is interested though so keep me in mind as a back-up ;)

Also if you see me about tomorrow then stop me! I've got those side lenses for you.
