04-05 Ep3 is same with a base rsx.

02-04 RSX-s you need axles and front knuckles. rear is the same. Just the hubs you need.

05-06 RSX-s you need axles, front knuckles and front lca's. rear is the same. just the hubs you need.

p.s. might as well change out the brake booster and brake master cylinder.

hope this helps.

yup type-s setup here.

So what year type s setup did u use And how much better braking did you get from the si to type s setup? Stock wise.

got the 02-04 type-s swap. braking has increased a bit due to bigger rotors and can handle more heat.
