I used the sedan e brake cables form the integra when I pulled the RTA's off at the junkyard. They fit but are a little shorter and you have to just bypass one mounting bracket. I'm ordering si brake cables to change though cause it bugs me that's it not right. You might as well pull a forward LCA from a 96-2000 civic while you do all this so you can install a sway bar later. The cx and dx model did not come with the needed hole for the sway bar link to install. I would also rebuild the entire thing too while you are there.

You will need disc "brake lines" at the rear because the drum lines do not fit the calipers. A good set of Russell stainless steel brake lines for a '99-00 Si would be a good investment.

if you are swapping 94-00 integrarear suspension you'll 94-00 Integra rear disk. I not sure that 99-00SI is the same as 94-00 Integra. while you them out i would consider upgrading your trailing arm bushing.

i am not doing suspension just the arm, bushing, caliper, lines.... eventually coilover system but I’m sure I will need a different set than a standard (ek) coiloiver system ?
so the parts I’m ordering .....
the above pic
-disc, trail arm, lines, new bushing while I’m already doing it, most likely new pads and rotors.... and the e brake cables .... that should be it.... I think. If anyone knows any little thing I’m missing let me know ex. Like the pins etc save me a headache please lol
