no, for the full upgrade you need AEM 330mm disk's

anyway nitin, i thought you didnt like the atr calipers because they were 'too slow'

Couple of questions..

What's the biggest OEM disc that will go with ATR callipers + carriers? 330mm? EVO 8 brembo?

And what's better using ATR setup or NSX/Legend set up?

If I'm using the ATR set up, then what's the smallest wheels I can fit? I know the ATR setup fits over the 16" saw blades but what about my Type-S wheels?.

You could go with Acura RL stuff loll 4 piston calipers and can put their 310mm or 325mm discs

I´m looking to upgrade my ATR to that king off caliper but it´s very expensive for shipping since the evo8/sti caliper is big and maybe is more difficult to fit inside a oem ET wheel!

Bringing this thread back from the dead...

My front off-side brake caliper is seizing up again. It seized up in June and was freed up the next day by a local garage. Has been working OK till today when it has started to play up again. So I'm considering the ATR brake upgrade.

I wanna keep my 3G 10-GR discs, so I'll be using my current Prelude carriers. From reading this thread, this is the way forward if someone wants to use ATR calipers with Prelude spec discs.

So it will be: ATR calipers + Prelude carriers + Prelude size discs.

My question is - will my current Prelude brake pads be OK, or will they need changing?

Prelude pads are fine with ATR calipers

Super, thanks for the quick responses.

I'm wondering if this is really a worthwhile upgrade? I've seen a few people say that it didn't make much difference. As I don't take my car on a race track, is this a worthwhile upgrade for me?
