Default RSX-S hub/brakes on a EK/EG?

I'm going to be looking into doing a K20/EK or EG here soon after totalling the old S(motor's still good ), and would like to definately get some rear brakes on there. Would I be able to take off my hubs and transfer them to the EG or EK hatches? This question then brings up some issues with the swap, would I have to get different custom axles than what are offered by Hasport or Hybrid Racing, etc?

From what I remember the RSX knuckles wont mount to a EK/EG frame. The mounting points are different. The only car they would mount to would be a 7 gen Civic. I tried to get a set of RSX-R calipers for my EK, only to find out I would need a 17+ wheel with correct backspacing. I wasnt ready to run such a big wheel.

GSR brakes with Carbotech pads will give you more braking than you will ever need. And you can fit wheels as small as 14 inches over them.
