Default NEED INFO SOON! 96 ITR on 91 EF?

The car is a 91 HF w/ 91 integ rear disks and stock HF fronts.

Is it possible to convert the lugs to 4X114.3 w/ 96 spec ITR hubs and knuckles? Has anyone ever done this? And if it could be done will it be possible to get a good alignment afterward?. And I mean good enough for everyday driving....not just to the car show and then garaging it until the next time.

I know its a pretty drastic change for wheels and I never really considered doing it but damn all the ones I find are 114.3 and its a pretty good deal this time around.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

yes it is possible, just use 90-91 Ex Civic sedan knuckles, or 90-93 Teg knuckles.

So you're wanting to convert to 4 x 114.3 just because of the wheels?

If not, and you ITR size brakes, do it the easy way.

Grab yourself some Acura Vigor, Legend, Accord Wagon, Prelude VTEC calipers...or even regular ITR.

They will all be stamped Nissin 17CL15VN. All these calipers accomodate the 11.1" rotors.

Then get some Prelude VTEC rotors, which again...are 11.1". Get them redrilled to a 4 x 100 bolt pattern and slap them on either EX or DA knuckles.

The only other thing you've got to do is get the brake caliper anchor/bracket machined down ~4mm.

After that it's golden. And replacement parts are easy to come by.

I'm also working on an ITR size rear brake setup (which is ~10") using other OEM components which = cheap, just like the front setup.

since it sounds like you have the complete swap , just use the 96 front knuckles.
your gonna need to have a camber kit to get your camber back to spec.

thanks for all the help people ....

wu tang - that looks sweet! Did you use complete ITR knuckle assemblies in the front? What about the rear?

yeah I was planning to get a camber kit to get everything in working order. I have a long commute and I dont want to be chewing up tires.

thanks. you don't need a camber kit for the front. just the back. cause in the front i have like 1 degree of camber in the front. but the back i had camber. to be honest. it just was just like putting on rear disk. this was a very easy thing to do!

Well Ill be ordering the stuff I need tomorrow (hubs, calipers, rotors, etc..) and will let you guys know how it goes when I swap it out (wont be until motor gets swapped out so hopefully that wont be too much longer). Ill try to keep track of everything step by step w/ pix.

thx for the help everyone
