Accord FAQ
HondaSociety
AccordinglyDone
etc

They are all pretty similar and most are cross-posted between sites.

11.2" rotors, bigger calipers, Rotor over hub conversion, more wheel choices..


It has nothing to do with traction.

I have skimmed through them topics and i seem to never see any pics. I was also looking into a 5 lug swap for my 96 ex wag. I see the front looks rather easy to swap but, it seems that there is an issue with the rear hub and never saw anything else. can we get some pics and more info?

If you have anything remotely stock motor wise you are not ever going to catch them...

Just get '96 spec ITR wheels (12.3lbs each) they are 4x114

Lol have you ever built anything of that magnitude?

If not, I would start small. You obviously chose the wrong platform unless you want to be the underdog.

Well the most I have heard/seen was 500 or so, I *think* Mr. Wonderfull hit 600's but can't remember 100%. His motor was seriously built up though.....

You really shouldnt quote that many pictures. Its pretty annoying to scroll down after seeing them the first time.


The front knuckles and bearings are from a 95-98 Odyssey.

The rear hub/bearing assemblies are from a 97-01 Prelude Base.

Front Rotors are Brembo Blanks.. Any 5 lug Honda from the 90s works.. (Odyssey/ Legend/ ITR/ Prelude .. etc)

Rear rotors are from an 03 RSX (all of that generation).

Front calipers are OEM Odyssey/ Base Legend/ VTEC Lude etc..

Rear calipers are OEM spec EX 94-97 Accord.
