I think I've decided on a brake combo for 96 LX 4 door:
Legend GS calipers (loaded with pads and bracket)
96 Accord V6 rotors
My question:
Do I use the brackets that come with the calipers or do I need ones for the rotors? If I need the ones for the rotors, which ones from what car?

Also, which pads, legend or V6?


I have read all of the upgrade articles and just don't know about these issues.
Thanks in advance.

Edit #1: Looks like I need T23 brackets
But can I just shim the T28 brackets with 5mm worth of washers?

What bracket SHOULD be on my car now (OEM)?

those calipers won't fit unless you have a V6, wgn, or for rotor over hub 98-99 CL front knuckles ...then you would use the 23T bracket... unless you keep the small stock rotors instead of upgradeing to the larger ones!

If I'm not doing the rotor over hub conversion:
Why wont they fit? The caliper wont fit over the V6 rotor? If so, is it a rotor diameter or bracket spacing? The calipers come with the brackets.

it won't work because the knuckle part where the caliper mounts to is longer on the V6 to clear the bigger rotors it's just as much trouble to go rotor over hub as it needs replaced.
