ATR calipers and discs are probably the biggest you can get behind 16s . 300mm discs with twin pot calipers

atr ftw imo. nothing else will offer the same performance than spending 5x as much. imho...

What these two have said. 300mm ATR setup with some good pads & discs. I've had mine under two different sets of 16's now, it's tight mind

Yes mate thats what you need, I managed to find some on accordr.org in the breakers yard section. Luckily I got hold of discs and pads as well so fitted the lot.

just brought a pair of accord type r calipers and carriers for the lude . i had a search for 300mm 4thgen discs but came up with nothing . so if i buy a set of uprated accord discs and have them drilled will this be ok. cheers jon

I think centre bore size is different between 4g & ATR.
I utilised a set of ep3 discs and had them redrilled.
