Maybe I'm concentrating on the look of the Tarox rotors too much... but these kits could be a dead ringer for the KSport brand in the US?

That is an interesting kit. Based on the brake bias calculator, upgrading to their B32-6 kit actually results in a brake bias of around 72f/28r, which, if you lower the car and do other tweaks, is actually better. This is without changing the rears, except for the pads.

Do you really need to use the Honda brake fluid like the manual says? or will there be no difference if I rock Prestone ABS dot 3 fluid?

Excellent write up i was actually about to buy a set up, brembo slotted fronts and rears OEM sizes of course but decided to search the forum first and this was the first to pop up. It is an excellent read and thank you for the info.

Any more info on the Tarox kit? The narrow caliper used in their sport kit looks very interesting and could possibly clear a larger amount of wheels compared to the rotora and stoptech designs.

Unfortunately the 6 piston kit for the 97-01 prelude is no longer listed on their website.

I installed the tarox kit created for the Integra Type-R, with just minor modifications. No problems with any wheels in 17''.
