Default 5 lug conversion question

for a 96 hatch.....could u just take the spindels off of a crv or and/ or 5 lug prelude and use them? if the rotors are the same size can you just retain stock calipers?

Why would you want to use stock calipers?

EDIT: The whole point of doing a 5-lug is for the brakes, so why keep the crappy calipers?
