ebrake issue, with rear disc conversion
well, just need a quick answer from those who have done it. I've read as much as I could before I started this and I guess I missed a spot. Anyways, I have a 98 hatchback, and I purchased some 00 GSR rear brakes and trailing arms. Everything mounts up, all the lines are good, until I got to the ebrake. I tried to adjust it but it's super tight. My question is, which ebrake line do i have to get if i have to get any at all.
The 99-00 si ebrake line or the 00 gsr ebrake line? Thanks, sorry to bring this issue back up again, i just couldn't find a clear answer.

Re: ebrake issue, with rear disc conversion
yeah, that's what i keep reading. The si stuff will work but i have a gsr rear disc, not sure if it applies. I just took it for a test drive and man, i can't believe i didn't do it earlier, they stop awesome!! brake pedal doesn't feel bad at all, a little on the soft side but still firm. I didn't replace the prop valve, cause the part number is the same as the one for the si. And i figure, crap if the prop valve is the same, i didn't replace the MC either. Now just this ebrake problem, grrrr..... thanks again HT, i do appreciate the help!

Re: ebrake issue, with rear disc conversion
hey curioso, i think i'm going to try the si ebrake cables. Can anybody confirm? if anybody has a part number for them, that would definately help.
right now i'm using the integra gsr ebrake cables and they are short.

Re: ebrake issue, with rear disc conversion
I did the gsr swap on my eg. I used the cables from the eg si and it bolted straight up.Not sure if the ek hatch has a model with rear disc .but if it does all you need are the cables from the same type of car you have that has a rear disc.My gsr brakes were off a 99 gsr and it bolted on no problem.
