yet another break swap question
96 Civic Ex
I've got a set of 94 GSR brakes on the way. Is this swap going to be plug n' play?
Would it be worth the trouble to return the GSR brakes and order a set of SI brakes? Is there a size difference between the GSR and SI? I would assume the SI brakes would be a simple bolt on, correct?

EX rotors and GSR rotors are the same size (at least EG-EX rotors are), just swap calipers to get the GSR's bigger pistons.

Re: yet another break swap question (mrlegoman)
I just did this 2 weeks ago.
EVERYTHING bolts right up. This means all suspension parts (including sway bars) and Brakes.
Front sway bar is a little more difficult because I had to remove the shift linkage. But it bolts right up.
I also got integra Master cylinder and Booster and proportioning valves. These bolts right up as well. For the master cylinder, you have to do some brake line bending.
