I have a 1999 GS Integra and I am thinking of doing a 5 bolt conversion. I can get my hands on a used 5 bolt set-up from a wrecked Type R. Can anyone explain what's the difference between the Type R and GS front brake, knuckle, and rear trailing assembly.

I have compared the OEM part #'s for both Type R and GS and the only thing I found different was the Hub-assembly. I know that caliper and rotor sizes are different. I'm just thinking if I can upgrade to ITR rotors and calipers and then remove my 4-bolt hubs and replace them with the 5 bolt hubs from a Type R? Would that work? What do you guys think?

 

Remove the knuckles and trailing arms and bolt up the new ones.

 

You could just so what I'm doing and just upgrade the brakes. Its not hard to get the ITR calipers and re-drill rotors to work on the 4bolt set up

 

I would but I already have spoon calipers for the 5 bolt set-up and rotors as well. So 5 bolt hubs would not fit the 4 bolt knuckles and trailing arms? I know I can custom make a bracket for the spoon calipers and make them fit on a 4 bolt setup but there's better wheel choice with 5 bolt

 

is this young-richie??
