i think that dustbuster4 looked at doing it. it was in the neighborhood of 300-350.
but dont forget that you also need a hub-puller, and you have to but the actual type-s rims and tires. by the time that you are finished it would be near or over 1000. imo, the type-s rims arent worth that anyway.

There are a couple threads on this:
krazyplaya213 had an adapter put on but it extended the wheels past the wheel well.
And the other was a failed attempt at a 3.2 suspension conversion to make the wheels fit that would have cost $2000-$3000 to make it work......but it didn't.
So I guess the moral of the story is.....forget about the Type S wheels until they make them 4 lug (and that probably won't happen)

i tried but i failed. cost too much. you need to get new everything! best thing to do its get the break setup from a 00-01 accord. total is about 1000. not worth it. i was offered free 18s but it was 5 lug so i looked into it and just when i was about to do it i backed out.

you can upgrade to the v-6 accord wagon brakes and calipers for the 4cyl's for about 300-400 bucks. you just have to know where to find the calipers...
