Grey has a spectacular aura aboutGrey has a spectacular aura about
The hubs. The rear drum brakes house the lug nuts, so rear drum brakes as well. You could just use RSX hubs for the front and rear I think? You'de need to replace the drums with the RSX disc brakes then, maybe even the front brakes? I say stick with the 4-lug.

How much would all that cost? I wouldn't mind doing it if it were reasonably inexpensive...

There is no REAL advantage to doing this, so I wouldnt worry about it.

yeah they make kits for this i know.

esp for acura cuz one of the ways to tell a type-r teggy from a fake is by the lug nuts, one has 4 and one has 5 can't remember which way that goes though
