Very true, I didnt notice that :facepalm: . They must have got that bored out then? On a 4th gen you are going to have to get some machining work done anyway as Honda 5 stud discs will need to be redrilled.

I am interested in the CRV conversion though 8-)

As far as I can tell the stud pattern is the same as well as the bore being the correct size. Not that it being too small would of been an issue for me, just more work! :D

I fitted the ATR calipers I had in the shed onto the standard discs/carriers on the JDM (quick fix to the seized standard caliper) a couple of weekends ago.

Definitely feels more progressive and there's a bit more bite towards the end than with standard calipers.

Nah, you're alright thanks - I'll be overhauling the calipers and fitting new 300mm discs when I get some money again.
Cheers for the offer though!

Going for the Mondeo rear discs as the offset on the CR-V discs was too much..... 8-)

Time to get my machining head on! :D
