yes, he is talking about the spindle and bearing off of the itr.

yes this can be done, but only if you have a larger knuckle in the front, only found on integras and civic ex/si.

the front will bolt up fine, but there is something minor that has to be swapped out in the rear, a washer i think. you will also have to buy the itr caliper and caliper bracket.

there is a right up about it recently, not sure if it was in the civic or integra forum.
it'll cost just about the same thing if you think about it. the only benefit i see doing it this way is you can take your time piecing it together, but then again, couldn't you save the money in the same amount of time.

My point was how could you only install the ITR bearings in a 4 lug hub and have 5 lug?

the hole in the knuckle where the bearing goes is the same (ex: itr and gsr). what's different is the spindle. that's the only thing different about the itr, well and the brakes, and suspension, hell you get what i mean right?

i'm going to do some searching for that thread. if someone finds it faster, post it up.

Again, my point is how are you going to get 5 studs through a 4 lug hub?

again, you have to replace the 4 lug spindle with that of a 5 lug.
once again, read the thread: https://honda-tech.com/zero...age=1

I was never contradicting you. I never said anything about the spindle. My first post was poking fun at the fact that the OP said he still wanted to use his 4 lug hub.

Hub =
