bought the same trailing bushes 2 weeks ago and the fully sick brake rotors are on special for $176 a pair and ignore the fact they both say front left lol
Yeah man how awesome are they
Wht brand again?
Whiteline or nolathane
I been driving an EG Civic as my daily transport for 29 years now. Nice video, great info. Subbed. Greetings from sunny Jamaica.
Wagron man!
@@TURBOTRISTO 🇺🇸thank you for the advice on the civic it took all that slop away been busy forgot to to tell you THANKS BUDDY 👍🇺🇸
One of the og Honda tuners from Jamaica is now here in aus I made freinds with him ChongData Marlon Chong fantastic guy
just helped my mate get his first car, we found a "low" mile 92' hatch (182k km! better than my 375k on my 92' cb7). been helping him knock out all the maintenance, so far we flushed the brake fluid, oil change, new brakes, new wheels and tires, but the last maintenance i wanna hit before i send him on his way is the suspension. been fearing doing the trailing arm bushings but this vid came up in auto play and saved me alot of hassle! Thanks mate great video!
you are very welcome mate, i have recent done a heap of suspension bush and sway bar videos you should check out, thanks for watching
Do you know the mileage on the timing belt? If not I'd do that, the tensioner, and the water pump before *anything* else. Honda original parts only too. Then fuel filter, cap, rotor, plugs and wires.
Budget tip for those really down on the dollar, just fill the air space gap within stock bushing with permatex rubber. U just inject it in from a calking gun. Once it hardens, voila! Solid rubber mount and u can do it while on the car!
whilst that can work, there isn't anything to bond to and the additional urethane will fall out
Hey mate, love watching your channel grow. Keep up the good work.
thank you man I appreciate every view and subscriber
Love your content. Never was into cars but drove my first civic and bought it. Wanna bring it back to life! it’s heaps good watching a video from aus and having parts and prices more realistic and relateable
Love from South Australia
Hey legend thanks for tuning in please subscribe and spread the word :)
I've done the flat plate method, don't even need to be metal steel, I did with some MDF. Worked a treat.
Mad handy to know
Just found your channel great info and you are very knowledgeable on the civic as I’m new to the civics as my boy picked one up definitely subscribing to your channel.
That’s great to hear Rodney welcome aboard mate
I’ve already done this but ur videos are so well in detail
Oh really .. I was worried it was too long and boring . Thanks for your kind words
Kinda late on this one, just discovered your channel and that's so cool that a mechanic newbie like me can understand and learn stuff like this thanks for your work man !
I've been keeping my ITR front and rear arms for like a year in the ceiling, rebuilding them from scratch, changing every little part, sanding and re painting them to make them brand new, i might be using these bushes because i want it to be a 1 timer and put my hands in these the least possible
Good plan man, that’s the best way these bushes are great because the cut vibration and have no where they can wear or crack
Use the OEM style ones if you drive it often.
@@nobodynoone2500 Why should i prioritize OEM style one for a regular use ? Is there some comfort related reason behind this choice ?
@@nobodynoone2500 why replace something that was poorly engineered from the get go? instead replace with a superior aftermarket one better in every way
Nice one i have eg turbo swap H2BA7
Thank you for sharing the bushing infro! 🙏
Any time! Mario!! thanks for watching commenting and hopefully subscribing
Thank you sir for the knowledge 🙏
You are very welcome mate
Awesome mods! Planning on get my hands on a EX 99-00 (d16y8), as my first car, I'm learning a lot with these videos and looking forward to be doing this kind of stuff myself, so thank you very much for sharing your knowledge on these little cars, you definatelly have the knowledge and charisma to get more views and subs 👏
Cheers mate! All the way from across the pond 🇧🇷 😊
Thank you my man please subscribe and share with your friends in your country
Great content, your killing it man. My EG will be fucking incredible because your videos!! Thank you sir!
oh really? what are you doing with it? thanks for your support by the way
*_definitely going to do this to my 97 EK hatch. 🔥_*
You 100% should man
Great info brother !
Cheers bruzzy cuzzy
I’ll be back after a run to the Junk yard!! White line order is in later today as well. Thank you
good stuff man happy to help!
Nice info and job 👍
Thanks drezik
Along with these upgrades, the other change that made the most noticable difference for me was installing an Integra rear sway bar(Si/CTR works too). If you aren't also beefing up your front one I'd be careful messing with the huge diameter rear bars you see online or you're risking a lot of oversteer.
Great tip
could i run a rear sway bar for my 93 eg hatch?
You do great 📸 s mate 😎 I don't have civic yet but your videos are awesome
Thanks Dom! You are the man
Wow great video!! Thank you! Subscribed!
Easy as mate thank you, spread the good word to your Honda buddies :)
@@TURBOTRISTO i just bought a complete front end dc2 subframe and front end suspension upgrade kit with new hubs bearings control arms ball joints rack n pinion the whole full nine for k20 prep but running b series b16 setup atm! On my 99 civic em1 si aswell as mini cooper front n back complete conversion brake kit aswell!! Spent lots of dollars!!! Haha making sure i got everything before going on to work on it! The trailing arms is the last missing piece at least! Might get me some nolathanes!! Any website recommendation!? And great video once again! I also do some vlogs here and there and a lot of cool acceleration videos! Thanks!!!
spoolup.com.au
Awesome content
Appreciate it , there are vids lol this coming soon
Wish you had uploaded this video a few months ago. I did replaced my bushing with the old one which cost me about $500. Didn't know it would cost that much as the much labour was included where they couldn't take the old one easily so took about 4.5 hrs for both they said, and charged me. This video is essential 👌
Thanks shrestha! I have done heaps of how too videos on my channel check it out and please subscribe
@@TURBOTRISTO yep already subscribed, will follow on because I am working on my car myself now
$500 honestly not bad tbh it’s a lot of work not going to lie you have to take the whole arm out and e brake then press it out $500 sounds about right
I really need to do this I checked my bushes after watching this and they are shot!
doooo it sir
Great vid man, looking at doing a brake conversion/big brake upgrade myself and had some questions. Did you use the standard ek braided brake lines from safe brakes? They say only fit ek calipers.
Yes I did, the safe brake braided lines are for the sedan/ ek4/em1 the part number through safebrake is HON-EK.RD1
already did the big work with my coupe with that rear arms!
in Lativa we just trying to find this rear arms on it from MB civics, because the VTI versions, we just dont find this cars in our country(
Oh that’s unlucky volkov, most people here don’t use them
Either but there is an abundance of them at the wrecker
The urethane ones bind up and tear out. Use the oem style. They need to bend in multiple axes not just rock back and forth due to honda's dynamic toe setup.
P.s. Urethane works literally EVERYWHERE else on a civic/crx/crv tho, so go ahead and buy a kit.
there has been a few similar comments to this below, I have chatted with whitleine about it and they say that the bush cant bind up as it can flex in all directions
I love the color on the brake calipers, what spray did you use
It’s called ‘squirts’ by white knite sold at Bunnings if you are in Oz, I painted my whole engine bay with this paint it’s awesome, the next build will get the rocket cover painted fluro yellow to match
You can also order the scarebird disc conversion. How do you feel about the energy suspension t-arm bushing?
so i have just checked out the website for energy suspension they all look awesome i would 100% recommend you buy a bush kit, the engine mounts and torque mounts look a bit cheap and dodgy though, I checked out the scarebird brake kits and to be honest, they look pretty dodgy I wouldn't use them. I would prefer some oem junk yard upgrades
I’m running the Energy Suspension black series. They have graphite in them so they won’t squeak.
That’s excellent, these don’t squeak either
I’ve been wanting to do something like after I swap out my rear trailing arms since my left side drum break is bent.
No time like the present
I recently picked up a clean 98 coupe ex with 141k miles on it, and have been building up a pile of everything I need to convert the rear drums to disc. I had to buy mostly new as getting to the hondas and acuras first is a nightmare, they've usually been picked clean like a cow in a river full of hungry piranha. I have been dreading doing the trailing arm bushings. This video might've just saved me a world of hurt.
I’m glad I could help check my other vids for more tips and consider subscribing
Have you matched the brand of rotors for the back with the rotors on the front going integra caliper ? Mini Cooper 280 front rotor ?
No man not important , Mini Cooper front rotor with integra calipers
I wanted to replace all of my bushings for energy suspension, but realized it was a mistake, since it was very difficult. this looks pretty easy though lol. I did score some seamingly new oem trailing arms in a junkyard so for now I'm using the oem bushings on everything, but would like something stiffer in the future. I just don't make a lot of money for now
Bro I know the feeling, I am grinding hard two jobs and doing RUclips to make ends meet, this mod is moreimportand than most other mods though you dont want the back wheels steering the car
You don't have to do everything all at once. I actually do simple upgrades myself even one side one part at a time.
@@lawrencedavidson6195 I'd just rather not replace most of the bushings on a stock part lol. I have a press, but it's a lot of work.
OEM are the best for trailing arms, and fine anywhere tbh. I do think the Energy kit is worth the hassle if you drive really hard on sticky tires. I say let a shop with a press do it for you in a few minutes. Puting the new ones in is way easier DIY. Or be like me and buy a press.
I ended up putting in the energy suspension ones. Did it in my drive way with an impact and a big bolt an washers to press them in. It was definitely alot harder to do then what is showed in this video. They definitely made my Civic Si more stable in the corners.
Just came across your channel.this is awesome.what size wheel and offset would fit. Cheers
Anything stock or larger
Thank you my brotha from down unda! (My bro is really named Tristan 😂🤫)
My 96 needs all new rubber errrwhere!
your brother must be a cool guy!!! get on the new rubber bushes your car will love you and it will give you a more confident feel when cornering or handling bumps
Nice. The ol boot push fit!
works like a charm
@@TURBOTRISTO not everyone can afford those fancy tools bruh 😔
@@danielarnold7466 yeah exactly
I installed the Prothane 8-304, not as easy to install as the Nolathane but easier than the Energy Suspension model (no need to keep the metals). Just heated up the arm and beat the hell out of it.
Nice man
How does the mounting bar that goes through trailing arm bushing lock into place? Seems like oem rubber is cast around mounting bar.
Oem is fixed the aftermarket ones slide, when you assemble them but don’t move when installed
Great video. If you lower your car or run bags, it rips those bushings up pretty fast. I did the energy ones, pain in the ass to press in with the arms still in the car. I used a long bolt and two pieces of wood to do it, they went in sideways 10 times until it finally just popped in.
I have had them in all
My civics for years, not even a crack, all
My cars are slammed
@@TURBOTRISTO Mine blew out when it was just lowered. When I went to buy replacements I thought about "clocking" the webs on install to compensate for the lowering. But found this type luckily, the 360 degree rotational ability is so far superior. I have an EJ6 commuter on bags, drop forks, drop LCA's. She goes up and down 4 times a day minimum, it's been around two years. So far so good. Zero tire wear issues.
thas great news man, i want a car on bags
@@TURBOTRISTO It's pretty fun. I had it super low static and it was ruining the car dragging the floor pan over speed bumps. Now I can hit the driveways and train crossings without clenching up.
I was just looking at getting an energy suspension bushing kit for the whole car.
great idea I checked out their website they look great I didn't like the engine mounts and the rear trailing arm bushes looked a bit weak but everything else looks great
The energy suspension bushings are amazing highly recommended
@@tristendecker5824 so I’ve heard man
totally doing this mod asap
you should
What do you think about the spherical bearing type replacement they offer for that trailing arm bushing. The ones I have seen are thru bolted thru the trailing arm which locate them. I’d just bet that poly will have a softer ride then a hard bearing.
Spherical are fantastic for a track only car and totally rubbish for a street car, they will vibrate and thrash out very quickly and the car will be horrible to drive
I have a 95 Del Sol... does this apply to my car as well?
I'm pretty sure this is the rear bushing that are going out in my car that I need to have replaced by using
a press to push them in...
Yes mate 100%
Those of us in the states don’t know how lucky we are to have so much flexibility with road rules & regulations. Having the freedom to experiment with our cars with little consistence really is a slice of freedom considering all the other things that US citizens complain about when they say the US is not as liberal as it used to be.
However here in South Fl we are the most popular state when it comes to the car culture and we’re the biggest domain when it comes to the automotive market both amateur and business. But Michigan is known for manufacturing the most vehicles.
I wish Australia was like Florida the wild stuff I would do on my RUclips channel would go viral but we can, if I show street racing the cops will kick in my door and take my hard drive as evidence then use that to charge me with crimes
Those rear disk conversions are like gold here in my part of Canada. Only hope is that one of the jdm importers happens to bring some in and you're quick enough to snatch a set up.
hahaha, not in Australia most people buy the base model civic and do nothing with it besides rims coilovers and a jdm learners flag air freshener hahaha, these come standard on civic sedans here in Australia so they are everywhere
@@TURBOTRISTO and because of our winters and the salt that's used on the roads good luck finding a set that hasn't turned to dust. You need to start collecting them and shipping them over to us. I'd be your first customer. 😉
I will consider that for sure
Well you talked me into it. I just ordered a pair of The Whiteline bushings. Honestly it never really occurred to me to change these things out. Thanks for the tip.
trust me man yours will be split and cracked its probably costing you money on tyre wear, I lowered a civic for a bloke last week and when i lifted the rear up to take the wheels off , the metal ring nearly fell out it was that bad
I've replaced the trailing arm bushing a few times over the years on my EF. I wonder how those will hold up. They look super easy to put in.
They hold up
Awesomely
Anything will hold up better than the rubber ones.
Subbed for sharing a name and for the info.
Thanks bro
Hey Turbo T… when are you going to do a Vid on the Sheepey race Lambo in Vic?
Hoping you say after lockdown
After lockdown
My EK loves you for this man lol .
Edit - I’m running maxpeeding rods coil over kit on my 99 accord . Can’t say I’m heavily impressed until I can find a rebuild kit as the right rear is knocking in straight lines through rough roads .
Let them know they will send you a new insert
@@TURBOTRISTO meh theyre about 3 years old man lol . I doubt warranty will do anything . I mean as far as being adjustable and really good cornering results I def give em 4 outta 5 stars even as cheap as they are . I cant bitch to much lol . I may buy a set for my EK . I really wanted something expesive for this project but im not rich just yet lmao
@@lostkauz83 I know the feeling, I recomend bc coilovers for mid budget and shockworks for the best of the best on the planet, and they aren’t much more than bc’s
@@TURBOTRISTO sweet thanks for the info ! I’ll def be looking into these brands you speak of !
@@lostkauz83 no worries mate
Am sure they are 280mm the mini rotas and do you need shim spacers round the lug studs?
No you don’t need to
I just bought the whiteline ones for my type r .. i try to install they this week.... Big help this video
I’m glad it helps it’s amazing how many civics are out there unsafe

I'm doing all my front bushings first but definitely gonna grab a pair of these once I button up the front
Awesme man Im doing it all now in an integra video out in a few days
@TURBOTRISTO just because you replied I subscribed sir. Have a great one!!
thats because you are a bloody legend Trav!
ALWAYS USE A NUMBER 3 PHILLIPS SOCKET ON THE ROTOR SCREWS. Never stripped one with this tip. Regular Phillips will strip it.
Coool tip Frosti thanks 🥶🥶🥶🥶
might aswell use Jis heads from Vessel instead of Philips
@@masterjack8222 Really anything that fits perfectly snug in the screw. Regular screw drivers, even with a big tip, are sharp and bottom out before filling out the + and you'll just strip the shit out of it.
I have a Honda Civic 2000 ek1 4 door sedan I wanna know what spoiler can I put on the back?
On my sedan I run no spoiler, it’s entirely up to you and the look you are going for if you are going for the race look add something from a period correct late 90s touring car, if you are going more modern subtle style you could add a low small lip spoiler like an Audi or bmw might have, i guess it all depends on the style. If you go back and check my first video on my civic you will see my sedan with a pretty nice spoiler on the back I actually liked it but it wasn’t the look I wanted, I couldn’t even sell it back in the day so it went out for council collection, it’s a shame it was nice
Does it have to be 17cn15vn brakes calipers or does other codes work aswell? Because i can’t find the 17cn15vn anywhere
Are you talking about the front or rear
Would the big brake calipers and big rotors be front and back?
No just for the front
I wouldn't suggest the bushings and here's my reasoning why the factory is very pliable and going in corners its gonna give way the aftermarket spherical bearings are solid but the bearing gives no resistances the poly urethane are a lot stiffer and when you go into the corners it'll hold hold hold then snap back kind of like axle wrap on a solid rear axle i like poly for every other bushing on the car except the trailing arms i seriously think it could cause someone to wreck if they dont know its gonna snap in a corner
These are the bushings of choice for all racers, whiteline suspension are all very smart engineers and racers they sell the best gear for making cars handle better they are world class and all have university degree’s I’m
Sure they know what’s is best
@@TURBOTRISTO If that's the case I wonder why exclusive Honda JDM tuner brands like Spoon/Mugen/etc. don't offer these type of solid urethane bushings? 🤔They stick with a harder version of the oem design.
@@Minwary mugen is a branch of oem and spoon is an engine tuner so they don’t know as much as a stand alone suspension only tuner
Easiest way, jack front wheel up, put the bush and trailing arm under the wheel let the car down slow weight of the car press the bush in so easy
If you have a second car haha but yes good tip
Honed makes a 986 kit for cheap and that gives you 300mm rotors and 4 pistons
Honed are no doubt the best!! NO QUESTION, although that brake kit is around 5 times the price at a minimum
Hi Tristan when upgrading to the bigger front brakes do you have to upgrade the master cylinder ? Or is the stock one ok ?
the stock on will be ok , it is advisable though if you can get a bigger master cylinder from the same car you pull the brakes out of is a great idea, personally I run a HONED brake master delete, it will give you much better pedal feel and brake control but it is a bit weird to drive on for the first day but you get used to it
@@TURBOTRISTO great info
@@TURBOTRISTO thanks for the info , keep up with the great videos !!
@@carlsmith6319 thanks for tuning in mate
I need to replace those exact bushings on my CRX, it´s gonna be a pain to take all those 30+ year old rusty bolts off :>
I have a 95 Eg6, should i be looking to buy Integra trailing arms, and then New rotors and pads that way?
Eg 6 should have discs on the back already but if it doesnt then just grab ek sedan brakes
Every honda civic need is Upgrade all bushing to energy suspension kit, Dc Integra Front and rear brake upgrade with Integra Rs booster dual and master cylinder with 2 main master cylinder brake lines to prop valve because don't need that "NON-Abs" with a 40/40. Some Stainless steel brake lines which every brand you prefer, ebay slotted rotors. Hawk brake pads.. makes a good handling daily car with your choice of suspension.
I agree mate 10000%
Hi do you find these limit toe adjustments? I have a 2” drop with similar trailing arm bushings and can’t get toe in spec it’s slightly toed in at max setting
No not at all they work great
@@TURBOTRISTO Ok I must have some other issue going on. Do you know why the oem ones have one round bolt hole and the other oblong?
its just for centering and to eliminate the possibility of it spinning, not that it would,
most peoples biggest issue is overtightening the suspension whilst the car is in the air, all suspension components must be tighten'd up on the car when the car is at ride height to avoid taring the bushes
Hey mate just wondering if you know if the 17cl14vn calipers are different to the 17cl15vn
Sorry man I do not know the answer
I was wondering the same. I found the 14VN calipers on 92 accords. Still looking for 15VN calipers
Yo mate. Where do you located. I have ej8 i need pro to have a look on it
I’m in springvale
Hello
Are these maxspeedingeods disc reliable?
2 years since the video was filmed, what can you report (in all sincerity) on these max brake discs?
THANKS
Nothing wrong with the actual discs I have put them on a couple of cars I am releasing a video tomorrow about a better solution and a better way of doing it, the issue is the holes are all giant and the flop around, you need spacers and things to get them to sit centred, my solution in tomorrows video is better
Will this brake upgrade cause fitment issues with 15" wheels and a stock offset?
I am told that it does fit behind the factory 15s, i am running 16s on my car and they clear fine, when i do the upgrade I will try slip on the stock rims and see how the clearance is
Depending on the offset, you will need to test fit afterwards
I have a dx with drums I have a rear disc brake swap do I need to change the prop valve?
No you don’t have to the eks have the same on all models
Thanks for the reply explains why it worked well on my ex model
Isn't the center hole of the mini discs bigger than the civics? This is what take the load.
It’s slightly larger, there shouldn’t be any load on your brake rotors once they are clamped on to the hub with the rim they centre just like any other fully floating factory disc set up, it would be ideal if the hubs were tighter so it would limit the chance of someone locking down one lug with it off set and then doing the other 3 up off set, but you would have to be pretty careless to do that
Anyone noticed the second brake rotor doesn’t have the two small holes for the 2 small screws but the first brake rotor set that’s already assembled does have it? Hmm
Haha you made me double check , they both 100% have the screws and the holes man watch it again :)
You’re right, the ones you assembled has them except the one @16:18 the mini cooper rotors doesn’t have 2 holes for them
Again man great job🇺🇸 I am grateful will be upgrading mine have some slop in the rear when I am taking turns at around 105mph still stable but just want to change this ASAP 🚙💨great info 🔥👍

The Mini cooper discs are 279mm, and verry thin, you need an MG discs, they are 282mm and a lot thicker, awso they are full bolt on. With the mini cooper discs you need spacers for the hub studs, and you can't use the disc to hub bolts

Hey mate what trailing arms are compatible with the ek? Im finding it hard to find one for a disc conversion

Do you need to change the trailing arms when grabbing parts for this conversion. Or do you just need the rotor and all of that.
Easier to do the whole trailing arm
Disc rear has different hubs and everything
@@TURBOTRISTO yeah I figured that. I was just wondering about the trailing arms cuz I have a 95 EX coupe and I did not know if I got the rear pieces from a Integra if I could just use those same trailing arms that's on my ex or if I have to use the Integra trailing arms. And I figured since you did it you'd probably know LOL

Hey guys anyone have issues with fitment with this? I tried it but I’m wondering if we have to change the actual spindle or knuckle because the 23T caliper bracket doesn’t clear the 280mm rotor. The bracket bolts right up by itself but doesn’t clear the rotor. Could it be the bracket itself? Thanks 🙏🏽
this is for the rear man they are only 240mm rear
@@TURBOTRISTO yes of course! Thank you for the quick response. I deff did the rears and they fit perfectly but I’m trying to do the front as well. I pulled off some cr-v rotors and brackets but they don’t clear the 280mm mini cooper rotors . I’ve seen other vids who say the knuckles need to be off an ex but this is going on a hatchback. Maybe the hatch has smaller knuckles vs the ex? I appreciate your response brother. Love your vids
the CRV knuckles and hubs should bolt directly to an eg/ek and then you can use the same hubs and everything, failing that if you are using civic knuckles you need to use the 262 civic sedan or vtir em1or ek4 hubs the integra type r calipers or the crv calipers will bolt on and clear 280/282 rotors, easily i have 4 videos on this on my channel, on is the silver ek that i put this set up on that is in this video, the other is the first one on my black civic i think it was on the first start video, and the most recent one was the 5 stud conversion on my black civic i go into more detail and better explanations
@@TURBOTRISTO ahh yes I saw your other vids! Thanks so much. I actually was able to find me some off the CR-v this afternoon and it made things a lot easier to assemble.

Or a ex or em1
@TURBOTRISTO and thank you for the reply man I appreciate that and for the info not many people will answer on RUclips but I'm pretty sure I know what I have to get so the mini Cooper rotars are just a lil bigger then the integra or ex roatars but too
Mini Cooper are 282 sedan are 262 hatch are 238
I poured mine with urethane mix
How was it
how about a video on a poormans 5 lug conversion :)
Good idea, what parts would you use?
Tristan my guy , do 15s still fit with the bigger brake upgrade?
Yes they certainly do my latest video shows it
@@TURBOTRISTO thank you I’ll make sure to watch that one
Is this applicable to US market Civic's? I hope so because it's detailed and I'd like to do this to my hatch
G'day Carson, YES 100% everything is exactly the same for the usa market civics, and in my experience with suspension in USDM cars you really should spend a bit of time and some money changing all the bushes in your car, trust me it will drive and handle so nice
Yes 100% same mod here as in the US.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Let's get some L15 one off content pretty please 🥺
No mention of the Teg?
Same same
The OGs used to tell me this would give me snap oversteer. Any one experience that? Fyi for the folks on a tight build budget you don't need the whole trailing arm to do the disc swap, you can just swap spindles it's just a few torx in the back.
I have never had snap over steer, I think that is a myth , I’ve driven every Honda with every kind of rear bush and not noticed much difference
I just picked up an eg8 im going to give these shot thank you for your time. @@TURBOTRISTO
Update: I ended up using the energy suspension version of this bushing it was pretty simple to install. The car rides well.
Hey I want to go 5 wheel lug on my civic. What would you recommend?
I honestly wouldn't bother tbh, there is no advantage to going 5 stud unless you wanted to run a certain wheel that isn't available on a 4 stud
@@TURBOTRISTO there are some wheels that are hard to find in 4 lug and maybe go with a super charger set up
@@oscarb8522 that’s cool what engine are you running
Right now I ha is a D17 but I'm think of doing a k swap to it not sure. But tha y vwill be down the line. First I want to take care of stuff like this and then move up. Eventually I'm going to do an AWD system for it.
@@oscarb8522 good plan mate will be fast as
Lol first thing I did was pull the motor for a k24
Smart man!
Would this exact setup work for a 1992 Honda Civic eg hatch?
YES 100% IT DOES
@@TURBOTRISTO thanks. You put the link for the front rotors, which rear rotors would the civic eg require
@@harisovcina5176 any eg or ek sedan rotors will
Be perfect
Sorry for the questions lol but I’m about to do the same upgrade to front brakes, to confirm I need the following:
Mini Cooper Rotors
Crv Calipers & brake pads to suit
Integra Spindles
Master cylinder? Does this require changing
@@harisovcina5176 you need integra calipers and Mini Cooper rotors and ek sedan hubs/spindles
