Thanks to Wantsom for bringing over a JB wheel. It fits this brake upgrade no problem. Here's some pics:

Well I'll be...
The Commodore sliding style caliper that I used is more bulky than the Willwoods! Just confirm you are using the larger of the two NSX rotors (97on - I'm sure you are).

That'll learn me for assuming things without measurement.

Still a damn sight better that the CD size discs on the Lancer originally.

Thanks Cookie & Gerg

Lucky you asked me to check. Im actually running a 282mm disc. DBA part No. 484. That'll teach me for trying to remember values off the top of my head.

You could run this Wilwood caliper with a 298mm disc but it won't fit a 15" rim. The reason I went to 282mm was so I could run 15's.

To clarify.. that mount drawing is for a 282mm disc. Adjust as necessary for a 298mm disc.

I take what I said back. I clearly am a legend.

Just to clarify for any others.
DBA-484 (NSX 91-98) measures 282mm per Cookies plans
DBA-486 (NSX 4/97 on) measures 298mm

Thickness is identical, but there is 0.5mm difference in offset.

if I get time next week I'll modify those plans to suit the larger discs for anyone who wants to go one up on Cookie.
