the only 2 piston Honda's are the newer 2007+ rdx, odyssey, pilot, and crv fronts.

4 piston brakes usually come from some of the TL or RL's brembos.

i modify some RDX calipers to fit on my type S 11.8 inch Discs. the difference is night and day with braking. Some people complain that its not safe or the brake proportioning is wrong, but i have been running this for 1.5 years and i have not had any problems.

I had to shave some material off the caliper and make the holes on the knuckle larger.

Awesome job!

Also the Accord Type-R (H22 engine) has front 2 pot bigger calipers with 300mm thicker discs
and for CL9 it seems to be a direct swap without any modifications as long as you put the Accord Type-R carriers, too.
