that's a good question. i'd call up or go online and check part numbers on the follow stock parts.
calipers and pads for dx and std. also maybe call honda on the bracket that holds the mofo on your hub.

when I used to PM he would respond. He offered me a S2000 caliper setup for the DX knuckles. I bought brakets off him.

Hi, you can use any caliper stamped (16CL16VN) on 9.5" Knuckle, this is from S2000 (2003 up), RSX or TSX very easy to install and if you dont whant to bother to redrill you rotor, i used the VW Corrado G60 11" 4X100 with center ring. You can use 15" wheel with this brake setup...and the best part you keep you steering knuckle

I hope this will help you !!!

I think centering rings can be had from auto parts stores, also, in my experience, HF knuckles are no different from Std/DX/Si knuckles, they just have a different hub pressed in the bearing. The bearings are the same! Going from HF brakes to Si brakes would be VERY easy.
