Most of that is listed in this thread in the first couple posts
For the calipers, you need the larger caliper brackets from the 3.0 if you don't have a 3.0
To convert from the rotor over hub 97 setup, you can just buy 98-99 CL hub assemblies on ebay or from a salvage place, or acura parts seller

2) 93-96 Prelude VTEC Rotors
Rotors you can use 94-96 vtec prelude, or you can use 3.0 rotors.

Your original brake lines will fit after the conversion. I'm putting NSX brakes on my 2.2 just as soon as the drivers side caliper arrives.
Parts List:
• Calipers from the Legend GS Coupe/LS Sedan or NA1 NSX
• 25T caliper bracket from the 5th gen Accord V6, Accord Wagon, 4th gen Prelude VTEC or 3.0CL
• Rotors from a 5th gen Accord V6, Accord Wagon, 4th gen Prelude VTEC or 3.0CL
• 2 separate brake caliper hardware kits. 1 for the Legend/NSX calipers and 1 for the 25T brackets.
The "25" in the 25T caliper bracket is the width of the rotor in millimeters. The 2.2/2.3CL has 23T brackets. If you buy a loaded Legend/NSX caliper, you'll receive 28T brackets. The 28T will work if you shim the rotor.
Best place to buy the brackets is from rockauto.com. Advance Autoparts or other chains will charge you about $80. At Rock Auto it came to $40 with shipping.

thanks alot for that info. when i do this conversion on my Accord i was gonna keep the 28T's but didnt know i would have to shim the rotor.
my only question is that rockauto have 2 brackets listed with 2 different part numbers at different prices. i wonder what the difference is.
