To go 5 lug on a 6th gen you need to sway in the itr calipers, brackets, rotors, kunckles, arms.. the parts are typically around $1000.

I was under the impression that it could be done a different way. By taking ex/si knuckle and pressing the ITR hubs into it, using different mounting brakets and 99-00 Acura RL calipers, rotors and pads. You would basically piece one together from pieces at your local parts store, and give yourself a nice brake upgrade. Ive never done it, but I have been told by many local people that it works, hope that helps

Sounds like you know the answer than. Not sure why you ask a question you know the answer to But anyway, this forum used to be 7th gen oriented so our knowledge of earlier generations is a bit more limited. Seems like pressing the hub would be a PITA so I'm not sure which route you'd want to go.

Also if you do that upgrade you may want to upgrade your master cylinder to an 98-01 GSR or ITR it pushes more brake fluid for better performance. The stock civic MC is 13/16 for the DX and 7/8 for the EX. The GSR/ITR has a full inch! Thus pushing more fluid into your brake system.
Good luck and take care of your car!!!
