I think all 5 lugs knuckle for Honda R are the same. For instant, my Accord Euro R 5 lugs bearing also same with Civic S04 one.

BTW, if same, then u can call this Bay Brother PJ.03-7957 9864. Last time they sold me RM450/pc.

thanx for the info. i think it diff becoz 1.8 type r 99 hav a larger diameter driveshaft than EK9 five lugs...if all hav same size is a good news to me but the price for 1 piece (RM450)...fuhh it's killing me RM900 for one pair...any option?

In reality, donno whether there are any different or not between EK, Integra & Accord, cause when come to think of it, my Accord driveshaft should be the biggest among those...but then still can fir S04 knucles. Better bring sample la like that.

There are always cheap options, but of course the lifepan can't be guaranteed longer as compare to new one la.

1. Kedai potong. Really hard to get. Condition not guarantee.

2. Change the internal bearing only. Those bearing would cost around RM100-RM150 like that. Plus labor to compress & install the thing (donno). Just be prepared max RM200 la. Your saving would be around 45%-50% only per piece. Subject to total damaged la (100% loss)

FYI, front bearing can change individually much cheaper, but the rear one need to change with the hub 4++. All the EK9 and DC2 5 lugs bearing same. PM me for exact pricing. Thanks.
