Default Brake swap Q's

hello, im planning out my build and trying to figure out which way to go with brakes. ive been going through the brake swap section in the teq answers and many other threads to try and figure this out. ive got a 00 civic cx. i want to go 4x114 because i wont have to buy different rims. i found a store near me selling a 4x114 itr conversion. id like to know:

if id need to get 36mm hub axles or is it still 32mm?

what year were itrs made with 4x114 pattern/what country?

do i need to use the integra upper control arm?

will i have to change my prop valve?

what master cylinders would i need?

is this trailing arm the same as my civic?

if anyone has any answers to these questions it would be much appreciated, thanks alot.

do i need to use the integra upper control arm? No, you cannot use the Integra UCA. You must keep the stock peice.

will i have to change my prop valve? No, keep the stock one.

what master cylinders would i need? Go with the MC for the front calipers you have. So the DC 15/16 will work.

is this trailing arm the same as my civic? In a sense, yes they are the same. They will bolt exactly the same as the old arm.

Do you have rear drum? if so, you will need to switch the rear lines. however, I think the fronts will work fine.

Yes, if you can get them with the conversion, if not, regular ole Integra lines will do.
