    ok robert first off you would need the following:
    to make it an easier installation
    1 the whole 5 lug conversion from an ITR 98-01
    2 the proportioning valve if yours is not an SI or Vtec
    3Iwould highly recommend the booster and 1" master cyl from the same car(cause u will need a bigger piston for aplying pressure to those big calipers)
    4 5x114.3 rims pretty much any set of rims for a ITR, eclipse, etc.

    On the master cylinder, you can use a eariler Civic one which is pretty much the same as the ones used on the ABS VTEC model, but without ABS and then you can used the old lines, no cutting etc. Makes it plug and play. I try to find the part number, I know I saved the article somewhere on this, but I got a new computer and am having trouble finding stuff now.

    By the way you can used Prelude ones, same as Accords I believe too. Whole knuckle out has to be changed out on any of these upgrades, your old calipers won't work (with the VTEC's models just pop the rotors and calipers on and upgrade the master and your done).

    hey geo I didnt cut any lines or have to get new lines. everything bolted right on just had to tweak the line a little bit, and the prelude thing it's just a 4 lug aren't they?

    What master did you use? Not sure all are 5 lugs, but newer ones are (2000 up for sure).

    so i can use Accord, prelude or ITR parts? you guys are confusing me on what to use. if i can get away with not getting ITR parts that would be great because they are so expensive.
