Default can em1 use civic 5 lug?

someone told me that you cannot because the rear LCA is shorter so you cannot run the ITR LCA. can anyone confirm this to be true? i did a conversion on my DC2 but now i wanna do it to my EM1. sorry guys, ive been away from the scene for a second but now im back.

You need to use the EM1 rear LCA or buy CTR rear LCAs to run the Type-R "eye" rear struts.

Si and CTR rear LCAs are the same.
The ITR LCAs are too short for the EK/EM chassis.

just get legend dual piston calipers and redrill the ITR rotors to 4x100.

it's cheaper and more effective.

unless your sole purpose is to impress people that know very little.

5lug = worthless


or just get a good set of pads. Ask rodney what brakes he runs on his civic

Use the ITR 5-lug with Si LCAs.

Yes.

LCAs have nothing to do with a brake conversion.
