I doubt very much that you will be able to use integra brakes as the only uk integra we got was the type-r. Yes they're are jdm integras knocking about over here so they must need parts but they are very rare.
Maybe the brakes are the same as thats fited to a eg civic 4 door vti with the B18 in, but I dont know for certain.
I know prelude vti brakes can go on but nobody on here seems to know about that swap. Other than that get some black diamond discs and pads.

actually, the type-r set-up is perfect if you also want 5-lug's....94-01 intergras in the US...I'm sure they were the same over at your place

Yeah and good luck finding ITR brakes as there was only a limited number of cars made and most are still on the road driving round. you good buy them from a dealer but that would be ££££ and stupid.
CTR is a different case as we have thosands of them and lots get crashed. I believe they need quite a bit of work to make them fit an EG though.

ummm, why? Do they have a different suspension set up? All civics here are the same suspension wise as far as I know.

A guy I know who had an eg vti bought all the gear from a CTR and ran into all sorts of problems, It was never completed as he wrote off the car.
All I know is that it wasnt that simple, I think he said you could get the discs drilled to fit the standard 4 lug hubs, but I cant comment on that as it was never completed.

i'm pretty sure that to get it all to bolt together right you have to basically get the whole rear end off the type R just because the parts are completely different and you need to get them all. the 5-lug pattern is where it starts and then from there in its all just a different rear. not 100% on that tho.

sorry new 2 all this. CTR ITR???
this sounds like a pretty complicated swap. think il jus go for a decent aftermarketdisc n pad.
