Everything bolts right up. The only thing you don't need is the rear lca's. You don't really need the brake booster or master cylinder but if you get them along with the swap then you should install them as well.

Which ek do you have? If it's a cx you will need more than say if you had an ex.

Bassically you should get the discs assy, the trailing arms,
proportioning valve(unless you have an ex or si)
also the master cyl/brake booster.
you'll also need to get si e-brake cables.

Just use your stock upper arms for the fronts, and your rear LCAs for the rears.

I'm just posting this for my friend since he doesn't have an account. O' sorry it's an CX and yes his going to use stainless steel brake lines too.

So he should just use the stock upper arms for the fronts, and the rear LCAs. Would he need anything else?

I used my stock rear lca's and they fit as well.

It is easier to just do the lca's with the rest of the set-up, unless the bolts are a pita. I did the swap with the GSR lca's, but the GSR's were bent, so I swapped mine back on, and it bolted up just fine.
