I'd love to upgrade my brakes, actually, make a 5 lug conversion too :)
And since getting these (5 lug stuff) over here is a bit of a problem, I thought of buying the CR-V parts.What do you think are those interchangeable?
 
as far as i know Prelude brakes are a straight swap on an EK4 you just need bigger disks from a Rover

Thanks, the idea is to have a 5 lug conversion at a lower price:lol:
However I feel i need stronger brakes after comparing mine ek4 stocks to the ones on my buddy's EP3:nono:
 
Ive heard of butchering crv hubs onto ek suspension parts, im sure somewhere on hondatech.com some americans have done it.

Why not try a mgzs180 caliper/zr160 and a set of aftermarket pads with oem mgzs disc. Also remember that a 1inch master cylinder from a dc2/ek9 will help alot. It should provide braking very close if not identical to running a set of ek9/dc2 calipers as the pad/piston size is very close in size.
 
Thanks everyone for the info, will see what is the easiest way over here
