Just as I suspected on both fronts. So you'd have 3mm spacers for S2000 calipers? So my options now are source some maserati shaman calipers and have all holes redrilled, but not space the caliper, or Integra 300mm calipers with four holes redrilled and the caliper spaced as per cool1's. I don't really want to overspace the calipers, 'cos I don't want specs to fall below OEM, thus encouraging wear and sloppy tolerances.

Another reason to pursue this 4 stud path has surfaced. I started doing research on my proposed S13 rear end --> RA23 setup, and if I use the S13 rear brake/hub combo, I end up with 4x114.3 at the back too... Of couse, it seems this is easily changed with S14 hubs to 5x114.3.

cool1, when you rebuilt your calipers with the spacers, did you use thin gaskets, or did you spray the mating surfaces with hylomar, or both... Or something completely different... I can't really tell from the pictures, but whatever the method, those galleries have a fair bit of pressure in them!
