Well, I'll be the firs to ask: How'd you fit TL calipers onto a TSX?

P.S. Looks good.

Couple of more questions how is the stopping power,how do you like those brake pads are they good, and what company rotors are you using? By the picture looks like they're zinc plated not sure.

For the record, I'm pretty sure every post that said "it was not possible" was actually:

It's not a direct bolt-on, you will have to make a custom bracket for it to fit.

Looks good, need better daylight pics though.

1. rotors are from R1 concepts
and instead of buying tsx rotors for the front i got TL rotors
then i had to get bigger bolts to hold the caliper in place which are TL bolts where u can get it at a dealer or online....
2.I had to make the hole on the spindle where the bolt that holds the caliper in place bigger.
3.I used washers in back of the rotor to push the rotor further so that it can sit right in the middle of the caliper

stopping power is way better just have to brake it in....
