I'm looking into removing as much as possible parts from my car, but still keep it safe.

I checked my old pictures from my civic 88-91, but both have brake boosters, after searching I see that people say it almost drives as with booster, you just need to press the panel a bit harder.

Which is not really the problem, but people also say if you replace the normal brake lines with rvs that you will brake a lot faster, does this mean that without the booster and adding rvs brake lines does around the same with booster and without the lines?


Anyone experience with a daily civic and the booster deleted? How does it drive compare to original?



An other question, not brake related.
the cluch line (stock one) can you also do a new one under the engine and back up to the filling thing?
Or does it really have to go around the engine?

I'm trying to get as much as possible information about relocating parts from my engine bay

Feel free to tell why you think that, do you have experience with it?

go pull the vac line off the booster and drive it around. you tell me.

Try plugging the vacuum hose that connects to the booster. That's how it feels without the booster assisting you in braking.

That is not the same, I was reading last night about a kit for removing it, one of the questions in the faq was if removing that line is the same as their kit, and the answer was that the kit is almost as original.


Like I posted, I'm looking for someone that have it and can tell it, not some smartass that just like to reply on things nothing personal

of course they told you everything is wonderful, they want you to buy it! do you think theyre going to tell you you're insane to remove the booster on a daily driven non track car? of course not! i had an integra that the previous owner (johnny tran, possibly) deleted the booster on. driving the car home from his place in chicago to mine was HELL. i am huge also, so its not like i was pussyfooting the brake pedal. since you have already made up your mind, go buy the thing, install it, hate it, remove it, put it on craigslist.

No, thanks! This was a post I'm looking for personal experience.

What's wrong with brakes that you want to *** with em? Usually people wanna make their brakes bigger and better not cut stuff out of the system and make them worse

You should probably be able to put a new clutch line wherever you want so long as it wont break. If you mess it up, you're gonna be driving around without a clutch until you drive home and fix it in a way where the line wont break
