All the 108mm calipers have the same offset from mouting bolts centres to the center of the rotors, but they have different offset from top to bottom. Due to the different bikes having longer or shorter mounting posts on the fork bottoms......That is why some require spacers to be fit between the caliper and the fork bottoms...If you have a FTI bracket he supplies 2 sets of spacers and instructions on which ones are to be used with the calipers you have...

And as mentioned HONDA calipers are the best choice because they have the cheapest OEM pads...Usually half the price of Kawi or Suzuki

i was hoping u would post up since u have the king of all brake setups lol and most likely would know what is up with all these brakes

The Suzuki and Honda Tokico has only 2 pads per side

Sorry meant to say the 05 06 CBR600rr use two pads per caliper on nissin caliper. Dont know Kawis

08 cbr1000rr and 09 cbr600rr have mono blocks.

First of all you haven't said what year/model Honda vs GSXR calipers, but as far as I know the answer would still be no....No Honda pads that I know of fit any GSXR calipers....
