Sedan brakes are 231mm ???

Wow !!
Just wow.

Well hubs will be the same as 242mm hubs as on the 16V civic and CRX, but you would need to use calipers from those cars to get them to fit if the sedan uses smaller discs.
Dunno about the offset. You'd have to check that. Halfords brake catalogue might be the easiest one to look at.

I know the CRX 16-16 calipers dont fit on a hatch 16-16.

You sure there 231's on the sedan

that just seems odd the concerto we have has 262 disc's standard i always thought the civic sedan would be the same

Even with the carriers?
The shuttle ones only have one bolt betweeen the caliper and carrier which makes them a bit odd.

No, I bought a pair of CRX calipers for the front and they were miles out, but a HUB conversion would sort it? CRX ones are slightly better aswell right?

Motorsportworld are listing the EG brakes as 240mm not 242mm.

The caliper MAY be the same, just pushed further out using the larger carrier.

Civic and CRX hubs are supposed to be identical across the engine fitment.
So CRX VT = civic VT and so on.

you must of been sold the wrong set or something

they both have the same calipers... 16CL13VN or something like that stamped on them, same as the Shuttle 1.6 as well.
