Si Brake rotors?
How big are the brake rotors on the Si, front and rear? 11.75" and 10.27"?

EDIT: Ok, did some MORE searching and found that the Si's rotors are 11.8/10.2 (f/r), which I notice is exactly the same as the 2006 RSX-S... Anyone know if the part numbers are the same, and if aftermarket rotors marketed for the RSX-S will fit the Si? I am having difficulty finding them... I know the Hawk HPS Pads will work on both, and I think I read someone say that Power Slot or Rotora has rotors out for the Si, though I couldn't confirm that on their site, or at any online retailers... a little help?

This may have been covered before (I don't remember)
Anyways, I don't think they are the same. Honda has different OE numbers for each car

45251-SVB-A50 Si
45251-S6M-A10 Type S

www.racingbrake.com has rotors
www.powerslot.com has rotors
www.rotora.com has rotors

powerslot's part numbers are different for the Si and RSX-S
racing brake's part numbers for both cars are the same.

honda is unlikely to have the same part numbers for different model cars simply because they belong to different model cars...as we've seen the rsx and the s2k have the same brake pads and now the Si and they all have different part numbers for them.

is this the same with the brake rotors? according to racing brake...YES
according to powerslot....NO
personally i think they are the same...but i'm not willing to risk it and try...i already got the pads...i'll wait on the rotors...i was powerslot's big rotors :)

I bet they are made out of different materials

Honda Oil filters...i've seen 2 of the SAME TYPE/SIZE filter with two different part numbers. the design was little different but the applications were the same

Just an FYI. we got a note from Power Slot today with a superceded part number for the front. They are now using the same rotors for the RSX-S as they are for the Si.

Does that apply to the rears also? How about the big brake kits?
