Default rear disc swap question????????

Hey guys I know that you can bolt a rear disc assembly from a 90-93 integra to an EF civic but could you bolt it up to an EG??

Yes it does have what you are looking for, Gotta read all of it. The 92-95 rear swap can come from any 94-01 integra rear... it bolts right in. No you can not use the 90-93 integra rear swap on a EG. I could be wrong but that is what i read.

"Okay, for 1992-1995 Civics let me say this:

1992-1993 Civics ALL have smaller rotors thatn the Integra - even the Si hatch and EX coupes in 1993.

1994-1995 EX and Si have same size rotors, but like DragII said the calipers eem to be smaller on the Civics.

With that said, here is what MOST people do to upgrade their brakes to Integra specs - all of the following are not ABSOLUTES, but they make it much easier:

Get the entire front spindles from any 1994-2001 Integra. This should include the spindles, calipers, hangers, rotors, lines, and dust shields.

Simply unbolt the upper and lower balljoints, and the ball joint that connects to the outer tie rod ends, disconnect the lines and swap the spindles. Would be a good idea to have badly rusted rotors turned or replaced, and throw in new brake pads too if possible.

For the rears, try to get the entire rear trailing arms assemblies with the parking brake cables too. Then just swap the entire traling arms and you're pretty much done.

Now, for the optional **** that WILL make a difference in braking and mostly pedal feel:

1994-2001 GS-R, LS, RS, any Integra brake booster. This bolts into any 1992-1995 with ease. BOLTS right in.

***IMPORTANT***

You MUST have an Integra booster in order to run an Integra master cylinder! Although the lines fit perfectly on the Intgegra RS mastercylinder, no Integra master cylinder will bolt up to the CIVIC brake booster. Get the Integra booster and you will have to run an Integra master cylinder too.

Integra RS master cylinder. The base model RS Integra had NO ABS so the lines match up PERFECT with any non-abs Civic - which most of you have. I have done this in my own car and it truly bolts in.

The Integra master cylinder is a 15/16th whgile the Civic non-abs uses a smaller 13/16th master cylinder.

Finally, add the GS-R, LS, RS, etc. proportion valve and you will have completed the package. 1992-1993 Civics will require you to change JUST the bracket over - use the Teg prop valve with the Civic bracket. 1994-1995 Civics can use the Integra bracket.

1-800-962-8922 is the number to Import Auto Salvage. They sell the most complete brake swaps I've see yet. Call and ask for Larry Jr. or Randy Joeb - tell them TOM from Georgia sent you.

Good luck, and now Trey or someone else please post the EK how-to"

OK here is the anwser to your question...
You can use the rear disc setup from a 90-93 integra, the only thing you need is the civic lower control arm. My friend did it to his EG hatch and it worked..
He is also using the stock master cylinder, and the parking brake cables from the 90-93 integra.
So there you go.. any question just ask

Damn, I did a tech article on how to do this a while ago, but the archive search isn't working. There is a way to do a rear disc swap while still retaining your factory trailing arms from your hatch. The whole disc/hub assembley unbolts from the trailing arm from the rear with 4 Torx 50 bolts and the 24 mm nut. You can then switch the whole assembly onto your owntrailing arm since the 92 teg ones won't work. I did do this to mine with 95 GSR rear discs because the trailing arms were bent, but I am pretty sure that the older tegs are the same pattern. Just take a look at the back of both trailing arms and see if they are the same where the hub bolts up. Sorry to hog space, but here are some pics to sort of clarify what I am talking about and what to look for.

Here is the back of the trailing arm. The four outer holes are where the torx bolts are and the middlnut is the 24 mm nut.

Here you can see the back of the factory drum with the torque screw and the center shaft
