DC5 Brembos on DC2 ITR?
dc5 brembos

Are just two examples. This can be done. Wheel choices are very limited.

Here is some info I found. The guy in this thread has an EG, but it has DC2 5 lug on it, and he claimed to use DC5 brakes on it.

http://www.k20a.org/forum/showpost.p...9&postcount=15

Here's some more info on the subject:
http://www.team-integra.net/forum/di...PagePosition=1

I know you're going to need to change the calipers, rotors, hubs and knuckles for sure. You'll also need 17s at least (some 16s might fit), and probably extended wheel studs. Beyond that, I don't know. I'd personally go for Legend or NSX brakes, as they are both two-piston and will fit directly with a milled 28T bracket. You can fit under many 15s with this setup, and use OEM pads too.

If you have more questions, you should talk to user 'BE2' on here.

i made this EXACT SAME THREAD less than 3 weeks ago. yes it can be done. contact sheekdude. he used spoon monoblock DC5 calipers on his ITR. Its the SAME parts minus the calipers! its a LOT of work and wheel choices are VERY limited like the DOGGINATOR said! I considered this but for for 1/2 the price of the conversion you could buy wilwoods! and rock just about any wheels!

Installing spoon monoblocks are nothing like installing dc5r calipers. Completly different.

From what I remember thats what sheekdude told me he had on his R. IDK, its just what I heard. I know that its not worth installing the DC5 Brembos because dollar for dollar you could have Wilwoods/spoons/mugens/nsx/legend.

Pretty sure he has monoblocks, thats a easy swap. Brembo dc5r's do not bolt up to a dc5 knuckle, thats were the confusion is comming in I believe.

Check out the diagrams from my old FS thread.

These calipers weigh 9 pounds each with pads.

An S2000 rotor has potential.
