I just need the general stuff, i need to know whats need to do the swap where i can find the parts, 5 lug has better wheel selection when it comes to OEM rims.
<-- my icon is one set of rims that i am considering they are from the 02 Si EP-R5.

Purchase all of that. Then, get S rear calipers, and R front calipers. Once you get that done, put on your new wheels that you purchased and start showing off the 5 lug!

Get the front knuckles and rear trailing arms with discs from an RSX or 04 Civic Si. Of course you'll have bigger rotors with Type-S brakes and even bigger with Type-R brakes.

Here im gonna pitch a idea i just founf out that Honda makes 4 lug wheels like my icon except that they are 16x6.5 not 17's so im thinking about not doing the conversion, post your opinions!

I also want Disc in the Rear is it possible to take the rear trailing arm and knuckles and disc/calipers from a 01+ civic Si to put on the rear of my em2 01?
