You need to buy a 5blug conversion from a ctr or an ITR.

They can be found here in the marketplace or on ebay/craigslist.

Most conversions with wheels can be had for ~$1000

Lol but yea if you buy the conversion thats basically everything you need i think the cables for the ebrake need to be changed out so i think guys are using Gsr e-brake cables for it

Yep.

Plus the 15" itr gunmetal and the 16" ctr white wheels are two of my favorite wheel setups.

The itr 15" is one of the few 15" wheels I actually like on ek's.

They're a little bigger. But what's more important is the brake master cylinder and the pistons.

Yes, it's one of the best brake setups you can get. bang/buck.

yeah that rear lip doesn't fit all too well. And the paint doesn't look like it matches well either.

Still a dope car though.

that coupe looks just like mine except mine's MR, your e-brake cables will work fine, mine's an EX and i had to buy Si ones, also, needed some bushings for the rear LCA's from an EG , stainless steel lines would help too, also your prop valve will work fine, i was recommended to upgrade the master cylinder and break booster, but you dont need it right away, just a plus to have
the breaking is definately better and once you get it on you will most likely need an alignment
