stainless brake hoses question
Does anybody know where I could buy some stainless brake hoses for a 2000 Civic cx hatch?
Everything that I find says for EX/Si. I can't imagine that there would be much of a difference.
I found one set that said it was for "cx/dx with smaller rotors", but then it also said "w/rear disk"
Obviously, neither the cx or dx came with rear disk. So that confused me.
I really just need a pair for the front, though.

The 92-95 CX, DX, VX and Si has the same front brake caliper (Akebono) while the EX has the larger caliper (Nissin). Any SS brake kit for an EG should work, but I doubt you'll find a set that only has the front. Drums use different brake lines than calipers.
Sorry, missed that you had a 2000 CX. Although they still use the Akebono front calipers. Here's a link to Goodridge SS brake lines that'll fit your CX and it looks like the kit is for rear drum. Goodridge SS brake lines

Re: stainless brake hoses question
While the caliper size/make does vary between trims/models the hard-lines and thread pitch on the caliper is the same so you could take you goodridge lines for a 94 DX and put them on your 01 type R. Or use them with wilwood/spoon calipers as I did for mine sold them to my buddy with a 99 SiR worked fine.
