JDM 4x114.3 ---> USDM 5x114.3
I plan on swapping from the 96 spec 4 lug to USDM 5 lug in the next 2 weeks or so. I just have a couple of questions.
First off, would there be a justifiable reason to go with the 98 spec instead of the USDM ITR? (didn't really think it was worth changing the axles for)
Second I think I know everything I need to swap, but just wanted to run it by you guys so I could get corrected (usually do lol). I know I need to swap hubs, calipers, and rotors. I know the GSR & ITR knuckles are the same (JDM 96 spec is basically a GSR setup). Not sure about the trailing arms. Also is it a pain in the *** to get the ball joint out?
Any additional related comments or advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Richard
P.S. Forgot to mention after the swap I will have the 4x114.3 for sale, along with a set of 18 inch racing hart c2's and some sprint springs (returning to stock height, car was this way when I bought it and can't for the life of me understand what whomever was thinking)

knuckle is the same, but i don't see a reason for swapping it out for the heavier 5 lug when that's the suspension and lug pattern that's pretty much factory for that car, 4 lug Type Rs are 1337 y0

no doubt.... it's popular to get the Prelude VTEC rotors and calipers for the fronts.....
you could also work something out with redrilling a set of EP3 SiRs for the rear and mounting a set of USDM ITR calipers out back to ensure everything is balanced....
Don't forget about the 1inch master cylinder.

Since the knuckles are the same for all 94-01 tegs, I won't be including them in what I sell, but if your buying for a teg you won't need them anyway.
Here's a link to the rims.
