Re: SI Rear Disc Brake Conversion (Civic98KH)
Probably going to want to buy a bigger Brake MC, and a 4040 prop valve.
When i did my rear brake conversion, i went with a GSR 1" MC, and the prop valve off of it.

That's way too much money.
You can pull them from older cars for much much less.
In addition to the items you listed, you will also need the rear soft lines for calipers (the fittings are different from those for wheel cylinders) and you should also source the correct proportioning valve for your application (which depends on front brakes and chassis as well as rear brakes).

The '99-00 Si has a 7/8" master cylinder.
Regardless, a master cylinder change is absolutely unecessary for a rear disc conversion.

whoops my bad, i got my mc off a Sir and that's 15/16". It may not be necessary, but if you have the ability to do it, then it's a good time to do it since you need to bleed the brakes anyway.
