I'm sorry, I NEED Brake conversion help!!
I spent the last three nites reading through the brake threads and didn't find what I need so I'm just going to ask.
I have a 95 EX coupe w/o ABS that currently has the stock brakes all around. One caliper is stuck.
I also have a salvage '00 Si (no ABS) that has all the brakes intact and in good shape, so I'd like to swap them over to the EX. I'd like to use the sway bars and stuff too and maybe the shocks since they're newer.
So what swaps, and what doesn't? I know I need the whole knuckle and trailing arm out back, but what about the front? Stock hubs or Si hubs? etc etc etc. ARGH! I'm frustrated at my stupidity and inability to find an answer so hook a brother up!!
Thanks everybody!!

It seems the answer would be clear if I had a DX, but I have an EX which is different.
I still don't know - do I need to change the knuckle, or just the caliper and bracket and rotor? GRRR. I'd like to know ahead of time.
If Si is the same as GSR then maybe that will help someone hook up the answer. . .

since u have an ex.. u can keep ur master cylinder and brake booster. you can use the si rear brakes. you'll need to use the si ebrake lines as well. leave the front one's alone. they're about the same size.
