legend/nsx caliper swap - Honda Prelude Forum

SLeepY · 07-11-2002, 02:22 PM

i am in the preocess of doing this swap. just got the calipers and now i'm rebuilding them. and i was just wondering if you needed to get the caliper brackets off a legend to make this swap work or if you can just use the existing brackets

You have to have the brackets.

have u found the inner piston seals anywhere? or a rebuild kit?

i took mine apart and when i went to buy a seal kit, it only has the boot and seal for the 38mm piston! damnit... one of my cousin's friend's has been trying to get me the 2 missing seals for a cheaper price cuz he works at an acura dealer. normally they cost around $20 each... ripoff

good luck

Actually i haven't started the rebuild yet. i took everything apart and cleaned it. i'm gonna go and get the parts for the rebuild tommrow. and with any luck i'll finish this weekend. but i'll let you know if i can find the boot and seal for cheaper.
