      95-98, but that only applies to the front conversion

        busted, just like doing a rotor over hub conversion, can you use let's say a 97-up prelude hub for the 5-lug up front?! can it fit inside the accord bearing? why change the whole knuckle? just a thought since i was looking over the hub conversion and the 5-lug idea came about. is this possible?

          5-lug Honda vehicles rock an 85mm bearing and 4-lug rock an 80mm bearing so the opening in the knuckle is not big enough to accept the larger diameter bearing.

              how much different is the nut for the the prelude compaired to the accord
              i just put the prelude brg on the rear and with the accord nut it only goes on with 4 threads. so the prelude nut should fix this?

                From what he had written about the DYI is that you could can use the Prelude spindle nut for the back with no problem at all and you'd need to do is make sure you hit it hard and stake it securely in that slot.

                  the prelude nut still doesnt go on all the way, but i was able to get it on enough to stake it and so far its been fine

                      Bump! Nice DIY.

                      Question: Would I be able to do this swap if I purchased the "rear disc conversion" from TAS? Or would I have to do an OEM rear disc swap?

                          I always meant to ask. Why did you use the ITR rotors and not the prelude ones.

                            Bump for answer. I know it was said the Prelude rotors wont work. Why not?

                              Is it because the prelude rotor isn't tall enough, so it wont fit on all the way?

                                the rotor doesnt go in far enough so it will not fit with the stock accord caliper bracket.
                                there is a way of using the prelude rotor you just need to make a spacer to space the caliper out toward the rotor that way the caliper will be centered over the rotor that is what i did
