5 Lug question
I have a 95LS and recently bought a complete 5 lug set up. I want to replace the stock struts and rear lower control arm. Would I need to replace them with Type R struts and LCAs or are they all the same?
Thank you!
Thank you!

Re: 5 Lug question
You can replace them with either. If you buy type r specific struts then you will need type r specific lca's, if you get rs/ls/gs/gsr specific struts then you will need rs/ls/gs/gsr specific lca's.
Itr struts fit inside the lca's while the rest the strut wraps around the outside of the lca's, but both systems will work on your car. I guess it depends on your budget which one you go with.
I ran gsr lca's and gsr specific apexi coil overs on my itr when I first got it because I really wanted to lower the car slightly and I had everything at home from my previous car so I installed it and they worked fine.

Re: 5 Lug question
Like B16EJ mention If you decide to use the rear ITR LCA everything will cost more. You don't have to use the rear ITR LCA to do a 5 lug conversion. You can get away using non ITR struts, springs and coilovers (cheaper in price then ITR).
I'm running ITR 5 lug conversion in my teg with no rear ITR LCA. I do have the LCA not install. I been running this set up since 2004.
