i got a set of brembo drilled/slotted rotors for my sedan. the problem is that the calipers are not big enough to fit on the rotor. did i get a set of rotors for a civic equipped with ABS, and if so could i just go get a set of calipers from an ex, and not have to do any modification to it?

Im not sure about this.. but i think the rotors for cars equipt with ABS are the same size. How do you mean it wont fit over it? As in the rotor is too thick? Did you order the right size? Compare it to your old one. Didnt civics have 2 different sizes? 9.5" and 10.5"?

if your pads are worn and now your adding new rotors you'll have to use a c-clamp or something to compress the caliper then it should work.

this doesn't really matter, it's a safety upgrade
