Clarification on Knuckles fitment (more on civic EG/EK)

Post by DJBobble » Mon Oct 05, 2009 2:39 am

Understand that knuckles need to be upgraded from civic eg/ek SOHC -> eg/ek DOHC for brake calipers and rotors upgrade.

And calipers and rotors from eg/ek DOHC -> DC2R/EK9/Prelude/Oddesey calipers and rotors.

Just curious and need to find out, if prelude knuckles are able to fit directly to a eg/ek .

Appreciate kind responses

the thread did not clarify on the knuckles between prelude and eg/ek dohc.
I'm thinking there might be a fitment issue between the axles and driveshaft due to difference.
Need an assurance.

From what I know, for EG6/EG9/EK3/EK4 to upgrade to prelude brake, you can use the original knuckles.
