Then buy your decent pads afterwards
Thanks Tom, I knew someone had done it.

Luke, here's the FS thread which has some info: https://www.s2ki.com/forums/uk-irela...ipers-1068718/

Don't think these are the Type-R ones - appear to be a single pot

For info, the old NSX shares the same (though has the addition of 'NSX' on the casting..) caliper. These however, are somewhat harder to get hold of though...

Thanks for the update.
​​​​​​
Do second hand accord calipers come with the carriers generally?

What pads did you use in the end?
