You're welcome. I will test the fitment sometime in the next three days, and report back.
The more I think about it, I am less inclined to blame the front brake rotor. Firstly, the brake rotor might have been improperly, asymmetrically tightened at the factory. Also, the stock brake pads might be glazing the brake rotor, causing the front brake to pulse. The following video describes this phenomenon.

Fixing the pulsing, front brake rotor might be as simple as performing the following steps.
1) Remove the front brake rotor. 2) Re-install the front brake rotor, tightening the bolts incrementally, in a star pattern, to prevent warping the rotor. 3) De-glaze the front brake rotor, as shown in the video above. 4) Install EBC FA185R, sintered brake pads. If the Honda caliper spring fits, I think it's best to install the Honda spring, rather than install the brake pads without a spring.

I successfully installed a pair of EBC FA185 brake pads in the front brake caliper of my Zongshen RX3. I was also able to use the stock, Zongshen pad spring. I posted a thread on this topic at the following link.
