Default Acura RSX 5 Lug on EG Civic? Is it possible???

I have a quick question... I was wondering if a RSX 5 Lug could fit onto a EG Civic? I was curious if there way any way to modify it to fit the EG... I searched and couldnt find anything, but I may not have type in the right thing. Please post any links to any threads or please just give me some information on this... Thank you very much....

Uhhhh... No! THe suspension designs are completely different, you can put 5 bolt on your car but you'll need to get it from an ITR.

We have put a beautiful DC5 ITR suspension setup on a current generation Civic Sedan (actually a Canadian 1.7 EL) that works beautifully though.

if your really cheap on the five lug conversion i hear you can use the CRV five lugs buy getting the wheel bearing? i dunno just what i heard but you have rear five lug drums instead of disks if you try it.

it actually is possible. you can use just the RSX wheel hub and your stock arms and knuckle and use RSX rotors and calipers and it works. i have done this myself it works. one bad this is that the K series axles have a larger spline so u need those axles but hey just drop a k20 in and u'll be fine

It's posible
If you have the rsx 02 5 lug with caliper/brakes
Need a itr axles 36mm from prelude BB6 (b series oh H )of course 5 lug an frankestini into your swap
Also for the rear you will need the Crv 1998 (5 lug ) training arms
Thats what i did for my civic coupe 1995
Or if you got a k series into your car all you need for the front
Is rsx axles

Correct me if I am wrong, but wouldn't the CRV trailing arms be too big/long for an EG/EJ? I know the headline question says EG. But, I am restoring an 90 CRX si with a Kswap and am interested to know if this conversion is possible for a CRX.
