Default Integra brake swap - master cylinder question

I bought an integra rear disc swap for my 92 hatch. I asked for the master cylinder, prop valve, and brake booster to be sent as well. To start with, they didn't send it, then they just sent the master cylinder and the prop valve.... I figured that's all I needed.

Now, it appears that the 'teg master cylinder will only bolt up to the 'teg brake booster, and not the civic. Is there a workaround that anyone's aware of? or do I just need to get the booster?

thanks

Ok, I've concluded that I need the booster. I guess I would have been slightly better off to get the ITR booster/MC instead.

GSR and ITR uses the same booster and MC. LS/RS tegs uses a smaller MC....15/16 bore. No, a teg MC will not bolt up to a civic booster.

Yes you need the brake booster with the GSR m/c. I wouldn't worry about the prop valve. I don't use it, but its up to you.

I would recommend the LS master and booster, because the GSR and Type R are antilock systems the line for the front brakes is larger diameter and you'll have to modify the line in your car. The LS is straight bolt in and works just fine, this is what I have in my car and I road race so I really put the brakes to the test Although I would also recommend you swap the fronts with GSR or LS brakes.

Yea, I've already swapped the brakes to GSR all around.
