I've got two question for you (if you don't mind me asking):

1. Call it 'bling', but I want to replace my stock Si front rotors with Endless Basic rotors (Endless USA). Would an 00-05 S2000 application fit our OEM Si's? I guess I should probably ask Endless if the rotor is 300x25mm in Diameter x Thickness, since that's the size of our stock rotor.

2. Can you recommend any affordable caliper upgrade that fits OEM rotors (yet another bling question).

Thanks
I have "heard" that the S2000 will work .... BUT I cannot recommend as I have not tried this ... I have also seen numerous references that the RSX type S caliper Will work ... But again since I have not personally confirmed this I cannot confirm / reccomend.

The Only caliper that I am aware of that works is the Rotora RCK.143.01 - FM4-C CALIPER
