I have a 96 EK Civic that I will be running Gator stage 3 axles in (larger outer hub). I am in the process of putting the 94+ wheel bearings in so I can run them. My question is, do I need to run an integra rotor or stay with the civic one? I tried searching but couldn't find any info about this.

 

whichever knuckle u are using is the rotor u run integra rotors wont work on civic knuckles without a bracket cause the civic and integra calipers wont bolt onto opposite knuckles

 

Can I retain the civic knuckle? I typed something out about the hub assembly on the knuckle but I forgot if I was supposed to change to an integra one.

I can't get a hold of gangster stan either since I lost his cell number.

 

If the wheel bearing fits in the civic knuckle you can im not sure if it does or not you would have to ask stan about that.

 

I had a similar problem...I had the integra circutworx hubs (which I didnt know at the time) and I was using the civic hubs so I ordered the civic wheel bearings which fit the knuckle but not the circutworx hub...so since I didnt have any intregra knuckles I had to return them and get the civic circutworx hubs which worked with the civic bearings I had ordered.

if you already have the hubs then you need to figure out whether they are for integra or civic knuckles...since circutworx has 2 different size hubs to accommodate for the different wheel bearing sizes...if you got the integra circutworx hubs then you are going to need the integra knuckles (b/c the wheel bearings are bigger on the integra knuckles) or a custom wheel bearing (if you have access to them) if you got the civic circutworx hubs then you use the civic knuckles including the brakes...the way to tell is the civic ones are exactly like the integra ones, only they have been machined down on the wheel bearing side so they are arent black...they kinda have a polished look on that side...so just use whatever brakes that corespond to the knuckles.

 

Just FYI 99-00 Civic Si use ABS Style hubs like all Integras do, even though they arenot ABS they use the ABS style hub and bearings.

 

92-95 civic SI kuckles use the bigger integra sized wheel bearing. anything other than SI uses the smaller bearing. 99+ SI also have the bigger bearing like what terry just stated.

 

I have DSS stg 5's with large outer hubs, and i used civic EX hubs with EX brakes.

Which wheel bearing are you running on the stage 5s?

 

97 Civic EX's

 

the stage 5s require the larger civic/integra wheel bearings.
