b18c and b16a question

[burner42]

Would my ek1 drive shafts and linkages be able to within a b18c2? cause i already have 4 stud rims i want to use, or should i just stick to a b16a2? It's a path i'm planning to take down the track, but i've not yet decided which one, also how much performance would i be looking at?

does ur em1 already have a b16a? anyway the hub doesnt make a difference with what you can use, so the answer is yes, they will all fit

I'm not sure i understand your question, but b18c2's and b16a's both come out of cars with a 4x100 wheel stud PCD. So you would be able to run your 4stud wheels regardless of which hubs/driveline you chose to use.

Oh ok, thanks guys, I have a cxi as I keep seeing 5 stud conversions, if I can get away with upgrading to ek4 brakes then I'm going to look at the b18c2

yes ek4 brakes are more then enough for b18c2.. if u can use your rear drums and upgrade just your front rotors and better pads

The last time I checked, I thought EK4 and DC2 (origin of the B18C2) brakes were the same. So in saying that, Ek4 brakes will be adequate; I'm running DC2 brakes, works fine.

Ps. If I had a CXI + B18C, I'd definately convert the rears to disc (AT LEAST GLI + good pads!)
