CR-Z 5 lug

Answer time!! Do the CR-Z front spindles and rear beam fit on the GE? Does anyone know for sure? Spindles I would think work because they *look* the same on paper, but then so does the rear axle beam. Do I just nut up and buy a CR-Z rear axle and see what happens? Or is it a better idea to just buy the Kuo's Garage 5 lug kit?

They don't even list it on their site, you have to email them about it. It's 650 plus tax, shipping, brake rotors for the front and custom drums for the rear

Plus it's a proprietary rear wheel bearing, that's why I'm trying to find out if the CR-Z rear beam will work

front crz hub goes on our bearing, as the bearings are the same part number

rear axle bolts right on, you gain a tiny bit of stiffness

you will need brake hoses and e-brake cables to comeplete the swap


no one in USA has CRZ 5 lug yet, I was hoping to be first lol next year

EDIT CRZ brake master is different size, might want to take measurements of our stock master and see about swappiung to a 4wheel disc one from another honda for best brake balance

Sweet deal man, I know I'm not gonna be the first cuz I'm gonna wait til my warranty is up, but I'll definitely be doing this eventually.
