323 and lx brakes

Are 323 GTX and Protege LX rotors and calipers interchangable?

It's possible for both versions but one must get the complete set i.e. rotors, calipers, and the knuckle or arm. Some modification may be required for the 88 GTX.

The 5 lug can be done. Like I said, just get the complete set. My friend used a Mazda Lantis V6 as we call it here for the swap. I'd put the picture here but a bit trouble some. If you really really wanna see, I'll email to you.

One can pratically put whatever rotor one desires as long as the diameter is not too far off. A lot of my Protege friends are using Mitsu Gallant VR4 rotor as the diameter is the same but very thick rotor. I'm personally using RX-7 FC model calipers and Honda Odessey rotors. Check out my site in page 6.
