i've read all of them... they say integra.... another says civic si. and 1 says del sol si-vtec. and i'm lost. i'm guessing they're not all the same.

If u have a delsol, then go with the delsol vtec cables. Integra may work, but may be too long, I'm not sure. I have an EK 4 door and i'm running integra 2 door on it right now, it works fine

Get cables that are best fit you your chassis. You want Del sol Si or Del Sol vtec.
Integras will be too long for you

You dont need lower control arms - you will be using the ones that came on the car.

the reason i want to use the control arm is because the del sol S control arm doesn't have a spot i can bolt an aftermarket sway bar onto.

anyway so as for cables:

i need 1 for the e-brake correct? and 2 other ones because i read somewhere it's seperated- like this 1RL, 1RR (2 rears). 1FR, 1FL (2 fronts)?

would i have to upgrade the MC / booster / prop valve ?

you need 1 cable for each wheel = 2 cables
you also need rear disc brake hoses = 2 (this is the rr,rl but theyre nonspecific for the sides)

You do want a prop valve (get one from a del sol si since its for your chassis and is non-abs)
An upgraded mc/bb is recommended
Those 2 you really should have found by searching.......

Yes, use the DelSol parts, the Civic/Integra ones don't fit (ebrake cables). For the fluid lines, almost anywill work, as long as they came form a rear disc model. You can get away without replacing the MC and PV, but it is recommended.

i read that the prop valve/mc/bb are not required... what exactly do each of those do? haha

i called sparks racing and their mechanic told me that all i would need is the e-brake cable. my eyes hurt.

Must haves= Delsol ebrake cables, rear disc fluid lines.

recommended= PV and MC booster combo.

ok so not too mant ppl seem to realize this but the master cyl. is the same for the early integra's, del sol's and civics (and the non vtec accords). enev though part numbers may vary, even with the same brand, they are essentially the same, so forget that. you dont NEED the porportioning valve, but without it the pedal will have alot more travel than your used to, and with it the performance is alot better because with rear disk, more power is sent evenly, as with drums the front do most of the work. now as for the power booster, that is different (widely) between models, for best performance i would go with the gsr booster, youll stop on a dime, but any vtec performance honda or acura booster will be sufficient. the cables also vary (again, widely) between the models, you will need del sol cables, i have a pair for sale if you need them, i bought a conversion off ebay for almost nothing cause it was off of a del sol and put it on my eg, but the cables it came with are far too short for me. sorry i tend to ramble but oh well

its isnt a must but the pedal will have more travel, i ran for a month without one, but what do i know, ive only been a mechanic for 5 years. dont mean to argue, everyone is intitled to thier own opinion, even if its wrong
