Default What do i need for a 5 lug swap on ep3

I'm planing on doing a five lug swap on my ep3. All i know that i need is drive shafts, rotors, hub, and the rims of the dc5. Is there anything else that i would need. Also would i need to swap out my suspension and brake calipers or can i just use the ep3 suspension and calipers. Thanks in advance.

I can do that but i think there is a more likely chance of me finding a 02-03 rsx then a 04 ep3. but thats still a good i ideal.

Is there anything to gain from a 5 lug conversion?

There isn't really much to gain by swapping 4 to 5 lug that i know of. In high hp applications i could see added hub strength so you wouldn't be snapping lugs. Unless you upgrade the calipers along with the rotors there wouldn't really be any added performance. If i'm wrong someone please correct me
