Suspension/Wheel/Brake Problem
This is the only draw back to my car i already knew what happened to it.
First off it doent have the 5 lug suspension it was stole in mid 2004 as the carfax report shows but it has a replacment of a 4 lug i been having problems find brake kits for it and i forgot what suspension type they put on it?

Just as a precaution, please measure the bolt pattern to make sure it's really 4x100 and not 4x114.3.
If it has a 4x114.3 it will have a different brake setup that will probably not be so bad. Let us know if you have 4x114.3 bolt pattern.
If it has a 4x100 bolt pattern then you should measure the diameter of the front rotor, and then call Fastbrakes (or a similar company) and tell them what you want. I am sure that you can share enough information with them that you'd be able to find a brake kit that will work for you.
You might have to consider new wheels along with the brake kit. Although the calipers with most brake kits will save you weight over the OEM brake calipers, they are sometimes larger and will not fit under a lot of stock Honda/Acura wheels.
