Hey dude would the brakes from an itr fit on my 05 ep3?

 

shea dude! like tooooootally. well if you mean ITR by DC5 then shea bra!

 

i think only if you did the whole ITR suspension conversion. kinda like when you put the 5 lug off an rsx onto an older ep3.
i did the whole ITR brembo conversion on my rsx and gave my 5 lug to my brother to put on his 4 lug ep3

 

you'd have to do the whole conversion.

 

hole conversion broseph..

 

Why would I need the suspension? My ep is already 5 lug. I was told I need axels, front sway bar, drive shatft, spindle an sumthin else? And the rears are that same as my stock so all i would have to change is the caliper if I want them red. Is the spindle an axel's the same from a type S?

 

no, if dc5's want the itr parts we gota swap too not just ep's

 

hmmm so where the hell can i buy that ITR stuff? I still dont understand why i need the ITR suspension, whats the difference from my ep, a dc, an dc itr?
oh yeah how much would you pay for sum ITR wheels in decent condition with minor road rash an tires???

 

well i would hold on to the ITR rims if you were going to do a brembo conversion because not all rims will clear the brembo caliper. the reason you have to swap out most of the suspension components is because the ITR has a wider stance and different offset also most people dont just switch the the ITR suspension for the brembos they do it for the wider stance and to save some weight.
a used brembo conversion usually runs around $1000 i think i even saw someone selling one on crsx the other day.

 

I already have the brakes but I am missing: One axel (I dont know if its driver side or passenger side), complete spindle left & right side, drive shaft, front sway bar, front lower control arms (both). If these brakes came on the itr with oem itr rims why would i hold off? i was thinkin it would be a perfect fit with those brakes an look bitchin on my car.
can you recomend some places to find the rest of my conversion?

 

hit up jhp or icb, but yeah its the over all wider stance that makes the conversion ness.

 

so if i wanted this wider stance its optional. got it. im doin it for the Brembo's. by suspension you mean shocks an springs rite? isn't that something i can do with the rite camber an caster?

 

well it could cause stress onthe mounts and the pistons, but.. honestly buying a set of endless or something would be easier, the brembos actually dont stick out as far as usdm brakes i dont think,( i could be wrong) and because the itr wheels are offset differently to keep the wheels in the wells more, this is why u need to run a spacer on a set of itr wheels if you put them on your usdm dc5. but then again its late im still sweaty and greasy and hungry. so dont take my word for it right now.

 

It works and costs about $6,000, you'd have to do a full conversion.

 

Sweaty, greasy, an hungry... you must have been working on ur car. Well I'm doing the conversion on my ep3 the brake setup is a little different then the rsx. I don't see many brake systems offered for my car an the ones they offer are way over my budget. I wish I could get a list of al the things I need an what I could use to make it better. I went into this project pretty blindly. Thanks for the help.

 

Wait ru saying the itr brembo conversion is gonna cost me $6k??

 

That's what he said, right?

 

wow dude. I wonder if he converted all the parts to genuine gold. cuz a guy on the ep forum said he did it with a buttload of Project Mu parts an spent $3k. With $6k you could literally fly to japan for a week, buy the parts for mega cheap, see the Honda factory, get drunk every nite, stay in 7 different love hotels, an bring back a real life poke'mon with money left over. True story. suck it.

 

^okay, cool guy. You fly to japan and do that....

 

lol you guys are all retarded

 

Izz needz six thozand dawaz duurr.
Any wayz there's no way this project could cost that much. Without being a total tard. At the most ill spent 2k if it goes over that ill give up.

So I don't understand why I need wheel spacers with the itr wheels?

 

actually i was working on a customers ep, but for as far as this conversion goes i woudnt even worry about it. ide do something else.

 

What do you mean you'd do something else?
Like what?

 

Oh I forgot to ask,
Does it matter if I'm still using my a3 motor for this brake conversion?
I know I need the itr drive shaft an axles but will it work with my tranny ok?
