Default What brake Lines for Rear Disc Swap????

I have a 2000 ex civic coupe. I have the rear trailing arm assembilies, 40/40 proportioning valve, replacing the trailing arm bushings with brand new ones. I also have the ebrake cables from an si civic coupe. I also have purchased brand new pads and rotors. The only parts i can think of needing are the new brake lines which i don't believe my current drum brake lines are compatible but i could be wrong. I am using 99 integra rear trailing arms. What brake lines do i need to complete my project. Thanks in advance

Not sure, but if you buy new ones you might as well get some braided steel ones from an eBay seller. They're one of the things on eBay that's okay to use.

I believe that you would use them for a 99-00 Si, but your drum brake lines might work... i'm not sure if you can use them or not.

the integra or the 99/00 si ones should be the same and those are the ones you want.

because the calipers use a bajo bolt with 2 crush washers to secure the line and the drum setup just uses a flare fitting. also make sure you have the banjo bolts from the calipers because *** holes like to not give those to you when you buy brake swaps, and you WILL need them. theyre not that much from the dealer if need be.
