Fan Blade wheel style suits the 4g bodyshell really well, but the front wheel looks completely and utterly lost!
I think they need to be spaced out so they give it a bit more sexiness. 8-) :geek:

Hi mate I'm getting ready to do my 5stud conversion and full ATR front setup. It's a bit more of a expensive way to do it but in the long run will mean you don't have to go about getting the larger discs redrilled when you need to change brakes. I've just got a couple of little things left to get.

Nice one Dan. I was gonna ask you about the upcoming 5 stud conversion. Didn't realise you were doing ATR upgrade as well though. :P

When's it all happening? Are you doing it yourself? Are you adding it to your profile thread? 8-)

I'm up for a group buy of re drilled 300mm 4stud discs ;). Defo avoid green stuff. Run them in my civic and tbh are crap :evil:
I was also thinking about the atr brake upgrade Andy. I will probably go for calipers, carriers and re drilled discs 8-)
One life, LIVE IT! Get VTEC, LOVE it. Drive a Honda and ENJOY it.

Ok, I'll get one started. Give me a day or so to dig out the info and I'll get it posted up :D

Yer only ONE model of ATR. But was slightly facelifted mid life.

I run ebc redgash and the fade quite easily.
Upgrading to mintex or hawk soon.

REAR 290mm discs with OEM calipers

Full spec and all parts needed are in my profile thread. If somebody need more pics or info I'm more than happy to give you my help.

And BTW I'm running EBC green pads on rear axle and I'm happy with them. Was using red pads on front, also with no bigger issue, but when I bought new discs they came with pads so I changed all set.

Don't forget to buy ABS sensors if you gonna go for 5 studs.

I do recommend upgrading rear brakes as well as you will lose correct brake balance. Likely you will overheat front ones, but while normal driving all will be fine. /except quicker wear on front

Good stuff, cheers buddy. I don't have ABS fortunately. So that should simplify matters a little. ;)

Ok,
Found myself home from work at half 8 for a change, so grabbing a few mins for some admin crap.
Sorry this has taken a bit longer than planned, but I have now contacted mtec for group buy prices and will post up once they get back to me with prices.
