It's not worth it to put DC5 brakes on your car. It would take too much money just to make it fit. Save your money and get some Brembo or other reputable company's rotors.

DC5 = 5 lug. How would this fit on a Civic without the 5 lug conversion? If budget rear brakes is what he wants, AEM big brake upgrade.

02-03 EP3 = 4 lug
specifically 4x100.

and also, it appears that the rear disc brake size are the same as the DC2 type Rs.

Why would pictures of the rear brake setup be needed? Aren't the rear brake setup the same between the EP3s and DC5s minuse the 4-lug parts.

brembo? aem? HAHAHA. yea right. anyways. i can use the rotor of the ep3 and use either ep3's brake caliper or dc5. reason for this is because i need more rear brake bias so that i will stop better at the track. basically if you have BIG *** BRAKES in the front the chances are you're stopping distance at the track will be worse than your stock brake setup. i guess mt3c is the only one who understands what im thinking.

i need the pics because im trying to fit it on my ej6 (ek for you jdm fans).

pics please

I said Brembo rotors for the rear. AEM also sells the rear rotor seperate from the front rotors. I know exactly what you're talking about. The rotors on the older EP3 will fit your car with some minor mods and 15" rims.
