I dont think its possible,,rsx uses completly different suspension then 00 and under cars..Not to mention it would be a downgrade to go from double wishbone to macpherson imo

It may be possible to weld the holes shut on your hubs then have them re-drilled for 5x114.3,since all you want is 5 lug....If there's a machine shop near you ask them about it,,it may work..

congrats on your k20 motor.

re: rsx calipers & rotors will work on 4X100's. the calipers can work on 90-91 EX, 96-00 EX, 99-00 Si or 94-00 DC TEG knuckles...the 11.8" RSX rotors will need to be re-drilled to 4X100. you'll need to upgrade to a bigger 1" or 15/16 MC from a 90-93 DA TEG

pm brakeexpert...he re-drills rotors, machines brake brackets & sell top-shelf caliper set-ups.

K20 will be fun, a fair bit of work though have fun!

To this day, i will never understand why anyone wastes their time with lug conversions....they don't do a damn thing. And if your gonna say you can run a different rim, its like paying double for your rim set. Hell, you could just get wheel spacer adaptors i guess, but its your cash.

Good luck if you can do it, all i know the hub is different if your going to use an itr arm or your oem arm, i should know because i changed all my hubs on my ITR suspension and i thought i can use the rsx or the 06 si but those hubs are a little bit bigger. all i know what comes close to an ITR hub is an 06 civic 4 door hub that goes in directly with ITR arm. Plus the trailing arm on the dc5 is bent a little while the ITR trailing arms are just straight. I did reasearch on it alreayd the only way is if you get a truly ITR set up and change your rear LCA's but i know the DC5 set up can probaly fit on a HONDA FIT i would want to see that. If you can make it happend good luck.

I believe i read somewhere recently that an 89-91 prelude 15/16" MC will work on an EF booster, which saves the headache of swapping boosters.
