Default Poor mans five lug conversion ???

Ok, so I know you can use the ITR five lug bearing/hub assembly on GSR knuckles to convert to five lug, but heres the hitch. I have 99 Civic Aerodeck 4x114.3's and I want to convert to five, will the ITR pieces fit? Can I use Prelude, or Accord hubs with what I have?

The car is a 92 Civic VX and the Aerodecks parts bolted right up. I know a lot of people in the states aren't familiar with the Aerodeck, but any advice is apprectiated.

Yea, I thought about that too, but I talked to a guy that tried it and he said the bearings were to big to fit the GSR knuckles by about a mm or two. He used the ITR hub/bearings and it fit perfect. I guess, I could go down to Honda and try to explain it to them (they have a hard time comprehending stuff like this), but I wanted to order the parts from the states, and since Acura and Honda part numbers are different there, I can't compare because the US doesn't have the Aerodeck VTi's, or any Aerodeck for that matter.

So, that's one I heard, one thumbs up to the I heard, against one guy that says they don't fit, anyone with something solid?
