why do you want to do a 5 bolt conversion?? cuz you bought rims with 5 bolt, or you want more strength or something....

I wanted to do the conversion, just for type r rims. But it's to much money as i found out, i'd rather spend money else where, I was just wondering wats involved.

it really isn't worth it... you could get a b16 for the same price... and the engine greatly improves performance

that is if you have a stock motor in now

in reality, that's not that much money... if you consider you'd pay $2000 for new rims, the extra $500 for brakes is a hella cheap deal!

Bruno has a point. If you can dish out 2G for a nice set of rims (but no rubbers) then 2500 for an used set of ITR rims + 5 lug conversion is around the same ball park.

BUT, that's if you can find the conversion for 2500 that is.
