Full 5-lug and rear disc brake conversion - 6/4/2007 6:20:08 AM    BlkCurrantKord   Posts: 1334 Joined: 5/27/2007 Status: offline I started piecing this together in Feb, Ebay and Car-part.com were my friends in finding most or all of the parts. Only missing a few misc parts which will be on order in the next month or so along w/ new coilovers soon after. Parts List - All are from a 98-02 Accord V6 Current parts I have are in bold: - Front Left and Right knuckles - Rear Left and Right knuckles - Rear 4cyl Calipers (same as V6) - Front V6 Calipers - Brand new TSX wheels (I got one helluva deal) - 225/45/17 Tires - R/H E-brake cable - L/H E-brake cable - Stainless steel 4cyl EX or V6 brake lines - Pads, rotors (5-lug) - Future upgrade to V6 master cylinder, probably won't need it but I'll keep it in mind. - D2 Coilovers < Message edited by BlkCurrantKord -- 6/12/2007 6:10:38 AM > Post #: 1

V6 brake package L/H E-brake cable R/H E-brake cable Inner Tie Rod X2 R/H Outer Tie Rod L/H Outer Tie Rod Gettin the SS brake lines from summit in a few days as well as the front calipers and the bolts that hold the rear caliper to the knuckle. I also got a free $20 gift certificate from the local Goodyear that I went to last year for new tires, alignment, and to have my axle replaced. So when I'm all done w/ this I'll be using that towards a 4 wheel alignment. (in reply to BlkCurrantKord) Post #: 2

Not that i don't prefer disks to drums ,but $$$ is an issue and have a sweet deal on some 5lug wheels so looking to convert _____________________________ -rjstl7 1996 Accord LX 2.2L 5sp (in reply to BlkCurrantKord) Post #: 7

And this thread is over a year old. _____________________________ Accord Mafia Member #001 (in reply to tnguyen600) Post #: 9
