5 lug on a fit?
I was just thinking the other day...First off about having rear disks on a Fit.
I know its not like a hatch were you get GsR rears and just bolting it up.
Then i got to wondering about getting 5 lug on a fit...would the RSX stuff bolt up or maybe the new SI suspension....Any ideas would be great lets try to figure this out. I know there would be no reason really to do exept the wheel choices and 4 wheel disks but it would be cool.

Ill be doing that converson this coming winter so Ill keep ya posted! Theres not to much info on how do do the swap yet but it will available soon enough. Iv already seen a couple Fits with the 5 lug swap but Im just picking up the parts (RSX & the new Si) from the junkyard and figuring it out on my own. Anything can be done with a little machine shop work!

sorry to bust some bubbles here, just a fyi, rsx jdm/usdm and the new civic si front hubs does NOT fit a fit. rsx front and rear hubs are different and the civic si front hubs are very similiar but also does not work.

Um any thing will fit with the rite skills and a little machine work, you cant rain on my parade Ill figure it out! We already know it doesnt bolt up. People are always quick to to point out what you cant do instead of actually giving out good information on what you can do!

Re: (jdmda7)
by the way last night i went through my super street mags.....
i noticed the white PeakBoost Fit has 5 lug.
the Carbon fiber and red Fit that super street was building for Sema had 5 lug and
the yellow J's Racing also had 5 lug.
Now i know these are all custom kinda "race" cars that have thousands of dollars invested but they did it somehow....we just gotta figure it out.

A little expensive but it gets the job done. </TD></TR></TABLE>
I'd be 100% put off by the fact that I have no idea how the hell to replace any of those parts should they wear out. Pads and rotors are wear parts, and without any idea of how to replace them, I'd never buy it. I did it on my Civic with 1996 JDM ITR brakes and it was the worst idea ever.

What threads were deleted? I'm sure I didn't delete any tech threads. I encourage you to post good info here.

actually.. i just searched.. both your threads are still there.. they just dont show up on the page anymore because nobody was posting anymore in those threads.. if you search for them and post something new... it will come back up..
this forum doesnt move as fast as the civic/integra forums.. if you look at the ratio of how many people have civics/integras vs how many people have fits.. its not hard to believe that this forum doesnt get as much action.
