Is there any? I didn't even know there were two kinds of ITR suspensions. I'm looking into a cheap upgrade of brakes and suspension for my 94 Civic DX. Does anyone know where I can find a list of differences in the SI, GSR, 5 lug ITR, and 4 lug ITR?

 

the 5-lug is 5x100, the 4-lug is 90-02 accord 4-lug, 92-96 prelude 4-lug pattern (4x114 i think) the 4-lug has bigger brakes, and uses bigger axle ends. the 5-lug is cool, but the 4-lug is lighter and better IMO. it came on the USDM 97 ITRs (only 300 here in the states) and like 96-98? CTRs and pre-98 JDM ITRs also. this is all i know, sorry if its hard to understand, im tired.

 

I'm asking because I've seen the 4 lug cheaper than the five lug. Thanks for the input. Anyone else have more?

 

4 lug = usless. brakes are size as GSR but with 4x114 spacing which sucks as far as wheel selection . it was found only on the 96-7 JDM ITR (not USDM or any other)
the price of the ITR 4 lug is higher then GSR which is more common as far as replacement parts and overall avalibility.

5 bolt gets larger brakes and in JDM ITR (larger axles - 36mm). again more cosmetic then anything for most.

GSR brakes with light weight wheels will set you lower then 5 bolt ITR

GSR get my vote as best set up for the money

 

What's the difference in the GSR and SI? Smaller brakes?

 

smaller front calipers on the Civic Si/Ex, although they both share the same size rotors.

 

5 lug is 5x114
4 lug is 4x114
5 lug uses 11.1 front rotor and 10.2 rear
4 lug uses gsr size 10.2 front and 9.x rear

jdm itr 5 lug uses prelude 36mm outer joints as opposed to the 4 lug and usdm
5 lug 32mm
the larger brakes are better by far, but i would suggest getting the us itr because
it makes like easier because the axles are the same size

 

I think I'll go with the GSR package. It'll be a needed improvement over my tiny DX stoppers. Is 550 a decent price for the entire suspension?

 

what about honda Odyessy 300mm 12 inch front discs?

do these have larger calipers too?

(sorry, a bit OT)

t..

 

5 lug is also supposed to have better traction.

 

Please care to elaborate?? I find that BS. 5 lug or 4 lug does not have any effect on traction. LSD/ tires do.

 

4 lug itrs WERE in the US in 97. if youre not sure, dont post it as a fact

 

if thats true, i would think they are related to the s2000 front brakes

 

That is 100% false

 

you dont know how 5 lugs give you better traction?????????

BAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
