    Not sure if im allowed to post a link here from donedeal so il just show the description!


    1997 Honda Civic SR OHC 1.4 i, Hatchback, Silver, Petrol,

    Im selling my honda civic type R rep it has

    * Nct till 09/12 Tax till 04/11

    * 5 stud type r wheels and disks all round


    Now seeing as this is a replica, how does he have the 5 wheel studs?
    I thought only real type r's had the 5?
    How does one go about getting the 5Studs on a Replica, what has to be replaced or done?
    Thanks.

    Presume he swapped the hubs from the type r the interior came from.

    All the running gear is swappable. So is the interior.
    After-all its the same car with some tweaks

    The subframe and additional bracing from the factory is visible if you know what to look for in case you think its some kind of dodgy motor.

    Civics don't straighten well after an accident if the chassis twists so convert ions where someone buys a whole crashed car are not unusual. Though a 1.4 engine with that much work done is weird.

    also the reason why the owner done the 5 stud conversion is to actually get the Type R wheels to fit but also the Type R Brakes wont go onto a 1.4 without the Type R hub conversion.

    Whatever you do, don't pay €2100 for that!
