The first picture is a comparison between the fully assembled stock DA knuckleĪnd ITR-spec DA knuckle. Load up your calipers with pads and bolt those Now that your runout is nice and in spec, pop your rotors on and screw them down. Made in Chiiina, but gets the job done and If you're looking for a cheap dial gauge and magnetic base stand, I picked upīoth at Harbor Freight on sale for $17 total. The needle should not move anymore than 0.002". Set up a dial gauge and mount it to your knuckle. Of the hub will wobble and cause premature Is bad or the machining is off, the surface What this means is that when you spin the hub, the surface of the hub should If you look at your FSM, you'll see the runout spec for the hubs is 0.002". The machining and pressing was done properly. Use the DC2 knuckles, you'll wind up withĪnyway, now your 5 lug knuckles should be mounted to your car. Make sureĪsk: " Why can't I just use the stock Type R knuckles and avoid all this machining?" The main reason is the difference in the curvature of the steering knuckles (one for each control arm and one for the Next, remove the 3 cotter pinsĪnd castle nuts to separate the 3 ball joints On each side, remove the axle nut (havingĪn air gun makes this quite a bit easier).Ĭhassis hardline and catch all the drippingīrake fluid. Shield attached and DA bearing and ITR hubīegin by removing your old knuckles. Picture is the DA knuckle with the ITR splash The second picture is of my freshly machined ITR hubs. The part number for the DA bearings (trivia: Wheel bearings pressed into your DA/EF(Si-R/EX) The diameter of the shaft of the ITR hubs.ĭespite what I say, you or the machine shopįter this, have the new pair of DA/EF(Si-R/EX) Grinder to be machined down to the appropriateīut they took off somewhere around 3mm off The DA hub and put my ITR hubs on a crank They spec'ed the diameter of the shaft of Why you can't just press out the DA/EF(Si-R/EX)īearings, and ITR hubs to the machine shop. Wheel bearings have a different inner and outerĭiameter than the DC/EG/EK (and ITR) wheelīearings, which means the shaft of the hub The offset difference between the two hubs.īefore you do this, it's important to know why you have to do this. ITR ones (the screw holes line up perfectly), Knuckles, now's the time to decide what toĮither cut your stock ones, move over the The hubs and bearings are out of the DA/EF(Si-R/EX) You'd be minimizing the amount of downtime Seem to just be giving these away and secondly, NOTE: for DA Owners: If you can, try to get yourself The hubs and bearings out of whatever knuckles To the machine shop and have them press all To wind up with hubless DA/EF(Si-R/EX) knucklesĪnd bare ITR hubs. Presses Are Fun: Ultimately, you will need This is where the 5 lug conversion ceases to be a bolt-on procedure, but restĪssured, if done properly, your conversion That follows this conversion, the geometry One slightly, but ultimately, all the boltĪnd after the much needed wheel alignment Note: The geometry of the actual physical "Don't I HAVE to use the ITR springs/shocks and control arms?" NO! For the love of poo, just use your current springs, shocks and rear LCA's!įine! Please don't ask this question anymore! After comparing, the ITR rear upperĬontrol arms appeared to be the exact sameĭimensions as the DA one. If you can, make sure your 5 lug comes with Your stock brake lines on all four corners. Still questionable whether or not you can use The rear upper and lower control arms and theīrake lines are holding it onto the car. Is also another bolt that holds the compensatorĪrm to the chassis. If you look under your trailing arms on theĬar, there are two bolts underneath the arm Undo the cables and reattach to the new arms. When you switch over the trailing arms, just You will need some form of Integra cables. If you have an EF with drums in the rear, The e-brake cablesįrom the Type R are unnecessary if you haveĪ DA. This part of the install is quite literally a bolt on process. In size, but when measured, the ITR pad has Also, the front brake pads are very similar NOTE: Although the ITR caliper is still a single-piston design, the caliperĪnd the piston are much bigger than the stockĭA. figure out whateverĪxle spline issues you're going to have before Prices on used car parts varyĭramatically. Mean it will clear (spoke design is a muchīigger factor). Wheels, make sure the spokes will clear theįront calipers. ITR hubs push the track out 5mm on all fourĬorners. ITR wheels are 15圆 +50 offset, while GS-R
