yes, it will fit...dont forget to get an integra master cylinder and you may utilize your stock proportioning valve...just make sure to bleed your brakes.

Newcome you gotta do a porportioning valve, you can get them from Baer if you wanna, but their is also a stock one that regulates how much brake power to distribute to front and rear braking systems.

The e-brake cables will be a bit short. (Unless you are ghetto at let it stretch instead of properly mounting them) I did my disc conversion with del sol's, and I had to get the correct e-brake lines.

You can use the e-brake cables from a civic or an integra, but not a del sol. (For proper oem fitment)

The brake lines are also different, need some from a civic/integra/del sol w/rear disc as well.

Was ghetto with his brake swap.

Good luck with the install. I don't know about Del Sol's, but on my EK the e-brake cables were kind of a bitch to route into the cabin (not because they were Integra cables). If the Del Sol is anywhere similar to the EK, you may want to drop down a section of your exhaust to make accessing the e-brake brackets a little easier. Again, this pertains to the EK, but maybe someone can let you know if the Sol has the same issue.

If he has never done this before, set aside plenty of time to get it done. You just never know when something will go wrong, a bolt will be really stubborn, etc. Make sure he is not doing the install, and needs the car up and running within a few hours.

Don't forget to bleed the brakes, and adjust the e-brake.
