Been wanting to do a rear rotor conversion on my 98 civic ex for a while. Found a 94 or 95 (OBD1) Integra LS or RS at a local junkyard and it has rear rotor brakes. I'm curious if the trailing arm's off this integra would fit on my civic for a drum to rotor conversion. And if so, what all would I need to get off the integra?

Yes, bolt on swap.

Get the trailing arms, of corse the brakes. Use 99-00 SI e-brake cables. It's generaly reccomend to use the brake line for what ever caliper you use.

So integra caliper, integra brake line.

Also, it's reccomend to swap the prop valve to a 40/40 from any 96-00 Hatch, si coupe, HX, Dx coupe. They share the same part number with the Si...

EDIT- Use all your orginal arms, and hardware. The integra parts WILL NOT work.

The Integra UCA and toe adjustment arms should fit. LCAs are different though... but you may as well find some with holes for a swaybar since it's a good upgrade to do while messing with the rear suspension.

No clue on the upper control arms, however, the toe arm are different.

ALL 96-00 civic's have the same LCA's, and ALL have the hole for the sway bar.

Sorry to bump an old thread, I just want some clarification. When you say "Use all your original arms, and hardware" are you referring to the rear trailing arm as well, or are you only talking about the UCA/LCA's?

Will the integra rear trailing arms work? I ask because there's a set for sale locally with the EM1 caliper on the Integra trailing arm. I want to be sure that it will work fine. Thanks..

he's referring to upper control arms, toe arms, lower control arms. the rear calipers are the same between civic and integra (non-r of course). you can use the integra trailing arm.

Thanks man! I was coming to that conclusion but just needed that little bit of confirmation.
