92 civic ex 4dr

I have found in the stickies the rotor over hub swap and the caliper swap with bigger rotors. Is there a way to do the rotor over hub and bigger brakes with the 4 lug on a 96 Accord? I wasn't able to find any write up for it.

Yes sir.

TAS Auto sells a kit. I have it down in the garage. If you give me a few hours I'll get home and dig them up and get the part numbers for ya.

they closed down a lil while back, Ghost
i was a bit surprised but there might be less swaps happening than before

I've wanted to do the rotor over hub for about 10 years, but never really got the chance. But I like bigger brakes, so if I can do both, I'm totally down for that. I'm also doing the 5th gen ex accord rear disc conversion.

A swap to 5 lugs gives you a lot more options. If you don't mind buying new wheels. And depending on how big of a rotor you will use, you might have to buy new wheels anyway.

I don't want to spend the money on wheels, if I had the money for them, I would do it.

Yes get the spindles, calipers, rotors and hubs off a v6 cl.

The rotors from the V6 are bigger? How about the wheel bearings? Are they the same from the V6 and the L4?

The V6 model is still hub over rotor. I want to convert to rotor over hub

Sorry all of the parts that I bought from TAS auto for the 4 bolt ROH, big brake conversion were reman parts with no Honda part numbers. There are a couple 4 lug ROH swap threads on hondasociety.com. they talk about what brackets to use with each rotor and caliper combo. Guess there are a couple different options available. NSX, CL, Accord Wagon and V6. You name it! Wish I could have been more help.

Im sure the same parts used on a 4th gen can be used on a 5th gen.

I did my old cb7 years ago(RIP)


I used 99 Acura CL 2.3 bearings and hubs and 4th gen Prelude VTEC calipers and rotors. Cost me around $500 back in 2005 or so.

The 97 CL is HOR. Same as the Gen 5 V6. The 98-99 CL's are ROH. The CL through 99 is really a Gen 5 Honda. I guess since Accord switched to ROH in 98 with the Gen 6 the CL did as well even though it retained the Gen 5 knuckles.

Thanks ghostaccord. That has helped me as far as what I need for what I want to do. I was surfing HondaSociety and came across the link for an upgrade thread that took me to OEM larger brake/rotor over hub conversion - Honda Forum : Honda and Acura Car Forums . Now I guess my next mission is to try and find out what master cylinder I can get to accommodate for the two extra piston's up front and support the two rear piston's when I convert from drum to disc.

Nice link!

I will be using the ASP Booster delete kit that I purchased from xenocron.com. Comes with the adapter plate and a Wilwood manual brake master cylinder. Also using a 40/40 prop valve out of an 94+ Integra RS (non-ABS). My setup is the big brake upgrade in the front, w/11.2" rotors and the larger 1 piston Nissin calipers. Running stock Accord EX-R disc swap in the rear.

Cl v6 are larger and roh. Accord 95-97 are hor.
