It's worth shelling out 5 bills to do.
IMO, 4 to 5 lug is not worth it. Drum to disk brakes, yes. More bolts, who cares! 4 holds them on don't they?!? Now if you are running Auto X, maybe, but upgraded studs are all that you'd really need in that case as well.

He wants it for the 5 lug wheels, not the extra "wheel holding powaaaaaar".... plus witht he 5-lug you get larger brake discs.

I'd do it for the larger rotors and purely to say I did cause its mad tyte jdm yo. It would be cool to say you did, and better stoping power, and maybe run some NSX calipers, get some real stopping power.

My machinist friend has AV6 brakes on a 98 Civic EX. I still say that there's no point. There are plenty of 4 lug rims out there and tons of universal 4 luggers.

Rear wheel disc conversion is worth it.
