Why? If you want a better suspesnion, just get something aftermarket. Type-R's don't need to use their legs and shoes just for some gsr or ls can have a "dope *** 5 lug".
Just my opinion.

well if he wants to upgrade to the better brakes of the ITR then he can do this. all you should need is the front knuckle/hub assembly and rear hub assembly along with front and rear rotors, calipers, etc. and dont forget those nice CW or gunmetal ITR wheels. im not 100% sure on all the parts but i believe that will do it. you could also look at http://www.fastbrakes.com as they have big brake kits for the fornt and rear of your car. that my be more of what you are looking for and might save you a bit of money dependig on how far you go with the job. good luck.

Yep you can get a fastbrakes kit which will give you the same brakes as an ITR (redrilled to 4-lug) but w/o having to convert to 5-lug. They also fit under 15" wheels.

I was wondering this also...I just wanted to go 5 lug. is it necessary to change alot of parts or can I just change the rotors and hubs over to a 5 lug?

Just curious, but what advantages are there for converting to 5-Lug? Aside from bolting the wheel down more.....?

Um, about none for 99.9% of us.

looks?
or maybe so it takes the theif longer to get the wheels off?
maybe he wants a complete kdm look, down to the 5 lugs. personaly i think its silly and you should spend your money on something better, like maybe a nice intake manifold if you dont already have it

supposedly it's better handling because the wheels are torqued out more evenly.. but i doubt you'd notice any difference
