Please can someone tell me the best way for a 5 stud upgrade for a eg civic.

Can I use : New model civic, accord, integra, prelude???

Looking at dropping a k20a into my eg but needing good brake system.

Thanks guys

well if ur looking at do a k20 swap.. ur best to get the front 5 stud from a crv which have 36mm out splines so u can use the stock driveshafts of the dc5 for the K swap and then use the rears off a dc2r or ek9.. Or easier but will cost more if u can find a 98spec jdm dc2r 5 stud which have 36mm front spline too.

So in all go with type R 5 stud??

(90LAN : crv has shitter offset and is more thinner in the hub arms)
What does this all mean?
Because the wrecker near me has a k24 crv with 5 stud rotors. With thinner hub arms effect driving and stopping?
There is a honda accord new model with 5 stud rotor, am i able to use those?

ive been told crv hubs fit but your best option if you dont wanna mess around with driveshafts is to source yourself a JDM DC2 98 spec 5 lug kit, afaik and to my knowledge jdm dc2 use a 36mm drive shaft so source yourself the complete kit and it'll pretty much bolt straight on! if you need help sourcing a jdm kit let me know

As stated already.
For zero greif, use DC2R (98+) Stub axles, hubs, brakes & trailing arms.
If you want better braking than std ITR brakes, use Spoon calipers or better.
Don't just change the axles & try to keep you original brake discs & calipers... (the offset is out by 2.5mm)
