Default Please assure me that I understand this correctly

OK....I have spent hours reading all the archived posts on brake swaps to try and answer my own question. Even though this may be a repetive question, I am still a little unsure on a few things on my specific swap and hoped you guys could set me straight!

<U>The Setup and Plan:</U>
I have a 94 CX hatch with GSR front swap and now wanting to swap the rear drums to disc.
I have the rear components from the 94 GSR (w/ABS) to swap with.

<U>The Uncertainty and Confustion:</U>
Considering the all around brake conversion, I am not too sure about the Master cylinder, Brake Booster, and Prop. Valve.
Should I change these from my stock civic?
If so, can I use all of these from the 94 GSR?
If not which years and ratios (iam a little confused w/ 40/40, 30/30, 15/16, etc)

[B]<U>The Assurance:</U>[B]
Please also assure me I understand this correctly:
1. I should use the civic arms.
2. I should use the 94 GSR brake cables.

Thanks for the help and please excuse my ingnorance, as I am still learning

i did this swap in my 95 dx
i, like you have a 98 gsr motor BUT w/ 01 type r brakes all the way around
you can use 90 civic ex/si master cyl becuase the type r master has the lines coming out in diff. places
also u can use the gsr booster & master BUT ya gotta get a teg prop. valve and most likely the brake lines
good luck - have fun

oo btw - use integra e-brake cables for this... the stock ones wont work, obviosly
