history in the making: world's first complete 5 lug swap of a cb7
i could have sworn i saw a cb9 (technically not a cb7, but just a wagon-7)with a 5 lug conversion last year......online, some write up...HT or somewhere, dunno, but they used NSX/odyssey parts......
if you have a link, let me know! not for competition's sake, but simply sharing knowledge and spreading info.

Hey El did he mention how long it took him to complete the conversion?
check the link i provided in the 1st post! it was a step by step sort of thing, he's a student (and we all know how that is). as far as how long it would take if you and a friend just attacked it... maybe it would take a weekend. i'm not really sure. k-mart or h23accord may have a better idea then me.

damn internet and it's inability to convey affect and tone of voice. meant it more out of excitement, not a scolding parental voice, lol. i can see how it may have come across that way, but that's not what i intended.

Most likely im take the offer i got for my 18 inch volk knock off wheels that 800 in my pocket and get prelude stocks chromed and ill be straight
All of the actual hands on work added up probably took a full day for everything. I can't say for sure because in addition to the five lug swap I replaced almost everything in that area just as some preventative maintenance and converted to rear disc in the process. I would definately set aside a full weekend to do it though.. And do it not on a Holiday weekend because you'll most likely have to make at least one trip to the parts store .
There is a full write-up in the works and it should be posted within the next few days. I'd like to snap some more pictures of everything with the wheels off so I can make it easier to understand than just plain text combined with imagination.
Thanks again to everyone

Thanks, and sure thing about Nopi. We'll exchange numbers around that time, hopefully we can get a big group together from CB7T and AccordTuner.
