"brake system master" , "pat"
meaning me (not to toot my own horn)

oh, you have abs eh...youre only upgrade would be itr/accord wagon (not that spectacular over your current set) or legend/nsx brakes then.

For that, yes, an 11" rotor is needed. You could be direct, like I said, and go w/ an 11" honda prelude or nsx set and just have it redrilled for 4x100, or you could try to find more info on the vw rotor of that size (of which I am not sure on the hub size at all) - - redrilling would be the best idea.
OR
you could go balls out 5lug conversion and bolt on the 5lug rotors each time you change w/o having to redrill...you could then use the sexy itr wheels....mmmm. Thats probably not very cost effective thought.

I should just make a brake thread...

Oh yeah, Youre going to need at least 15" wheels at all times to fit over the giant calipers. To find out which ones, search h-t. I dont have a clue which ones fit (oem I mean) - my cheap 14" winter wheels actually clear my integra calipers (which is more than I can say for those running hx's)
