Default EK Si 5-Lug Anyone Have Write Up ?

I did search folks, I found a number of articles related to DX's, EX's and 5 Lug conversions on EG's.

I was wondering has anyone taken the time to do 99 Si 5 lug conversion write up ? Also, I have a UK car, am I likely to come up against the same problems with the 32-36mm axel problem ?

I believe the EK coupes are made in the states, so I guess I will.

Any help would be much appreciated. Appologies if this has already been covered. Like I said, I did a search.

Cheers,

- Prob

decent howto here http://www.jdmvtec.com
should be about the same and unless you're starting off with a 36mm axle then yes you'll have the same problem... oh yea, don't forget the flare nut wrench.

which 5lug will you be using...

Didn't search hard enough.

I don't see why people get into stuff when they don't know for sure about their chassis.

Si is just the same as EX.

Thanks for the link. I had gathered that the setup was the same however what I was more concerned about was any implications in doing the conversion when my car was UK spec.

What exactly did you search for (the search string) maybe I'm doing my searchs wrong.

We all have to learn at some point I guess.
