As above. Have to swap round hubs in a couple of hours so that we can't go to are track day. Is it pretty straight forward

Didn't we have this conversation the other day?
Rear hubs have 4 bolts holding them on. Fronts, no idea.. can't be that hard though, it's a Prelude not a Nissan Elgrand! (which, for the record, is a pig to work on)

Don't think we did pal. It was about the actual bearing I think.
Anyway never got going as my m8 went out on the lash instead

was not impressed as I had been a good boy on the sat nite and was up for 6 ready to go change the hub and get to the track day.

. But sounds handy anyhow so will have to get it done thanks

Surely you don't need to remove your hubs for an excuse to not go... Just don't go!

But if you must, you have 4 nuts to remove on the rears. The fronts will involve undoing the tie rod and knocking the steering rack rod end out, knocking both upper and lower ball joints out of the hub, then undoing the 36mm axle nut and knocking the driveshaft back through.

Obviously you'll have had to have removed the wheel, disc and calipers first as well
