Default Brake Help....

Well heres the situation, i just did a brake swap [integra] into my civic and unfortunatly pass. side is bent and driver side caliper needs rebuild, i cant afford buying a rebuild caliper or have time to switch everything on the pass. side and yes im a dumbass for not checking it in the first place but watever.... Now my question is can i run my civic brakes with having the integra master cylinder, booster, and pp valve???

anyone????

Yep, you can.
I was running ex/si calipers up front with an itr mc/bb/em1 prop valve.

Are you sure its not just the seals on the caliper that need replacing?

well driver side kept slowly locking up, so i assumed that its the caliper itself bc of how old the piece is and its condition, but i honestly dont know, right now i am running the DX brakes and after a while both of the brakes start to lock up as well... what do you thing it could be?i did adjust the booster

could be a number of different things.
The problemt that you installed so many different things at once makes it hard to pinpoint.
Id start with the caliper itself as the issue and work from there...

what do u think is the reason why im locking up ...its it just becasue it distributing too much brake fluid and its causing it to do this, bc it does it to both sides on the dx brakes...whats ure full setup? [brake]

edit: it only starts locking up after i turn the car off....i dunno wat it could be

what booster and master cylinder combo are you using? if you mixed abs and non-abs mc and booster, your brakes will lock up. happened to me when i did the conversion.
