They won't fit. The Type R uses a 5 lug hub and you have a 4 lug hub.

Stay away from those cross drilled Brembo rotors. Stick with Brembo blanks.

get the blanks... any extra grab you get from slotted or drilled rotors is coming from the grooves digging into the pads--- which to say the least means that they just go thru pads 2x faster.
