Either that, or he just bought the calipers by themselves and had a bracket made for them... which is a possibility. Thats Robinyip's car right?

This is in Canada, but AJ is the North American distributor

personally, it's not worth it if u ask me...they're pretty expensive...
secondly, the universal one's will fit our cars (s2000 calipers)....u'll need to get custom brackets made to hold the caliper, and if the brake pads are too big for the rotor, u might have to trim some of the padding off ur pads....
my friend has spoon calipers on the front of his prelude...and there's no listing for a prelude on the product list for spoon....

Rep Power: 0 Sounds expensive seeing as how you can buy an entire (set of four) Brembo big brake kit (to include calipers and rotors) for about $3500.

The thing that I don't like about Spoon calipers is that they still utilize a stock sized rotor. One of the biggest benefits of a BBK is the fact that you get less heat fade...
It's still a good setup though.

and their biggest draw back would be the increase in rotational Inerta = Slower acceleration.
For performance, Big Brake kits are more of a last resort thing... meaning you increase the size of the rotor only after you've tryed every thing else to keep brake temps down (Higher temp pads, Better Vented Rotors, Brake Ducts, High Temp Brake Fluid, ect ect....)
Thats probably why Spoon still uses stock sized rotors... Because they don't want to make you slower.
