Prelude 5 lug on a civic?

Can parts from a 1997-2001 Prelude be used on a civic?
There are many threads where i see people saying no/yes....
I wanna know if this can be used or not , and if it can what modification is required......i dont wanna hear how you can use parts from a CRV or ITR/CTR i already know this..

any help would be greatley appreciated

thanks, Travis

Nope... At first I thought you can just swap out the hub but someone proved me wrong so no. Only calipers will work WITH MODS

You can use the front knuckles if you really wanted to but your suspension geometry will be changed drastically. The axles on a prelude use a 36 mm lock nut and also are a much bigger spline than the eg/dc/ek so its probably a better idea to just stay clear of the whole Lude setup...

P.S. the rears will not work on an EG/DC/EK at all...
