wouldnt using the ex knuckle be prefered? since it wont mess up the geometry. and dont the itr brakes bolt up to it?

yes give more info. tell us exactly what you did. i hate when people just post up pics with no info.

yes, as far as EX knuckles, not sure...i know its been done using integra knuckles...if the EX uses the same wheel bearing as the integra, i dont see why you cant do that instead...
