HELP! Will RSX Front brake pads FIT AUD DC5 TYPE R ??

[cazz]

Im currently looking for a set of new Front brake pads for my dc5 type r. I went to supercheap to order a set of bendix pads and they ended up being the wrong ones, (their stuff up) so i checked the bendix site and it actually states "INTEGRA 1997-NOW" and the part number which is DB1206. So i ordered those thinking OK ive got the right ones now. After i had received them, i tried to fit them but again they were the wrong ones also!

So now im confused? so i did a quick search on ebay U.S and they seem to have the same shape pads on their RSX S as we do for our DC5 Type R. So im thinking are they the same/will they fit ?? Very frustrating when you need to get front pads ASAP!!

Well im getting alot of both yes and no answers from people saying that even AUD type s pads will fit onto a type r so to make it clear, ive posted a pic ive taken of my Front pad off my DC5 TYPE R and above, what bendix thought was for my type R but clearly isnt, because it is too long and the straight edges wont go into the caliper.

DC5 FRONT brake pads are the same as S2000 pads. Take those wrong pads back and swap it for these:

Also these are RSX Type S pads. Again, looks pretty damn similar:

Wrong pads, those actually look like pads from DC2 Type R.

Well according to bendix those pads fits type R from 97-NOW.... maybe a DC2, but certainly not a DC5.

As michaelz has mentioned, you'll need to buy the ap1 s2000 front pads. i've swapped pads between my ap1 and dc5r without problems.
