Re: ITR 5 lug conversion for an 6th gen Civic (SpecR_EK)
front knuckles complete with calipers/rotors
rear complete with trailing arms, e-cables, brake lines (good time to upgrade to stainless)
also M/C, prop. valve from disc/disc setup is worth changing to, 15/16" to 1" is the best....

its more of a look thing then actual improvement in braking or lightweight wheels...
for about $2000, you can get some willwood calipers (4 or 6 pot), rear disc conversion and some lighteight wheels, which outbrakes the ITR brakes, looks better and is lighter.

Hmm, that sound interesting. If I were to go that route, what would I need just the rear trailing arms for the rear disc conversion?

$2000 even seems like a high estimate (for a budget guy like me). http://www.fastbrakes.com has the wilwood big brakes for ~$600, rear disc conv for ~350, and you can get rota c8's for $400.
ack, i just checked fastbrakes and their new website doesn't list prices, but i know they're close to what i listed.

I disagree that it is more looks than performance. For one you get bigger brakes that don't fade as bad at the track. Bigger master cylinder. Also the 5-lug adds strength over the 4-lug as well as the track on a Type R is 10mm wider than any other Integra which results in the wheels being pushed out another 5mm on all corners compared to a non Type R. Wider is better. See lots of benifits besides looks.
