all Mk4's were 5x100, and are a completely diff rotor than g60 rado ones

maybe he started usiing diff rotors. rado g06's are 4x100 no need to redrill

Re: Budget big brake how to
Thought I'd revive this a bit with my info.
Corrado rotors have too little offset (tophat is not deep enough). You'd need to space your calipers half an inch out so they would actually go onto the rotor.
Before I left my last job, I bought 2 sets of remanufactured 95ish Accord Wagon calipers (same as ITR). I shaved 1/8" off each to w/in .0002" (Sony dials on Bridgeports FTW). Unfortunately I only had cash to do 1 set of rotors.
On a 4th gen civic with 9" rotor hubs, you use the shaved ITR calipers and any 10" 5th gen Civic rotor.
On a 5th gen civic with 10" rotor hubs, you use the shaved ITR calipers and the 11.1" Prelude VTEC rotors ('95 i think), redrill the 4x114 to 4x100.
