You will need the knuckle assemblies as well, and new rotors.

You need more than just calipers. Look here for a parts list:

Thank you guys, it looks like it will cost a fortune to do the swap.
I like the Type S caliper because it has the word ACURA on it. I guess i'll go with the aftermarket brembo. Thank you guys!

Aftermarket Brembo will cost you a fortune and not worth it.

Go with Rotora or Racing Brake.

Contact vendors MrHeelToe or Excellerate.

Pretty sure the BBK from Rotora, StopTech, etc are built to fit the 05 AT model.

The aftermarket BBKs are a direct bolt-on for the 5AT. All you need is what comes with the kit, rotors, calipers, stainless lines, and caliper adaptors. Interestingly enough, the MT comes with better factory brakes but very few options for the aftermarket.
