Yes. They're both made of metal.
are the TL-S calipers the same as the DC5R calipers?
thank you for useless post, try being constructive.
figured out their not the same, they mount different directions and the pistons are in different.
I wouldn't use anything on our ours cars other than the DC5-R Brembos or Big brake kits SPECIFICALLY made for the RSX/EP3 chassis.
It has to do with the positioning of the caliper on the rotor itself. Since our calipers mount facing aft of the vehicle and the TL-S calipers mount facing forward.
I remember reading that multi-piston calipers have different sized pistons for the leading and trailing pistons. It has to do with heat dissipation and distributing it properly along the brake disc. Obviously aft facing and forward facing calipers have the leading and the trailing piston sizes on different ends on the caliper.
So if you were to use the TL-S calipers on our cars you would be installing it upside down and thus getting uneven wear and heat dissipation so you would not benefit greatly from installing them as compared to a proper big brake kit designed for our chassis.
