Hi thanks for the replies on my last post. I'm doing a k swap on my ej9 but I don't know what hubs to use on the rear and front that will go with the k swap. As I have said before I know there is a lot of info on here and other sites but everyone seems to say something different. I need to know from someone who has done it what brakes I can use to get 5 stud fitment on front and rear that will go with the k swap.

Thanks in advance.
 
I have 5x114 hubs with 262's rear and accord type r brakes twin pots at the front with 300mm discs.

I have ep3 front brakes and 98spec dc2 rears on mine. Stops pretty good!
 
If you're running a EKK2 setup (so you'll be needing a eg/dc2 subframe), they come in either 4 x 100 or 5 x 114.3 lug pattern.

I'd definitely recc a decent 2/4 pot caliper w/300mm disc (with good thickness)
 
Im going using 4x100 with spoon twinblock front cailpers in my build disks of a rover fit the hubs and cailpers and oem pads fit the cailpers or can use spoon pads but there over priced for what they are...yellow or red stuff pads fit too

And dc2 rears
 
I have 5 stud 98 spec rears and atr type r front twin pots all freshly rebuilt and ds3000 race pads :)
 
I have wilwood midilites with 282mm discs on the front and 262mm standard ek9 brakes on the back both with ferrodo DS2500 pads. Both of which are for sale soon if your interested. I'll do a for sale thread this week

I have the same setup.. cant fault it.. does squeal sometimes though... but bite is awesome and no fading during 15min sessions on track.
