i have a del sol si that im parting out and was wordering what parts i would need to use to swap the brakes over to my 90 lx 4 door?can i swap the complete knuckle up front and the rear trailing arm in the rear out for the sol parts?do i have to swap m/c and the prop valve too?what about parking break should i use the sol cables or modify mine to fit.im lookin for the easiest way out here.....are the front brakes any different?all i could find info on are the ex brakes and del sol vtec brakes.....

 

Front brakes are going to be a bitch to make work but the rear brakes can be used. I do not if the trailing arms themselves can be used but you can remove the rear assembly and switch it over, pust a PITA to get those bolts off.

 

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO SWAP THEM OVER?

What i think YOU need to know is how they change suspension geometry.

 

I know the front knuckles you cant use. They may not even be any bigger than the brakes you have now. For the front you need DA Knuckles or EF Civic EX Knuckles to get bigger brakes. The rears you can use.

 

tonight im gonna disassemble everything and take some pics to compare stuff

 

Fronts will probaly be the same size and will not work. They will bolt up but will throw your geometry all outta wack. For the front you want DA or 88-91 EX Knuckles which will have 10.2 rotors and bigger calipers and will bolt on. The rears you only need to swap the brakes and use all your stock suspension pieces.

 

if your going to spend all that money you should just get 91 gsr's. little more money less work

 

all brakes

 

i have the del sol already thats wrecked....
parts are free!!!!!!

 

Wait, aren't the Del Sol brakes the same size as CRX/Civic brakes?

 

the front rotors are identical i dunno about the calipers....i want the rear discs mainly since i only have drums......

 

Well in that case I would only do it to get the rear disc brakes, not the fronts.

 

I just did the front DA brakes, and it was a snap !! $125 for all DA brakes front and rear at the U-PULL-IT.

Going to need CRX SI rear disk brake lines too. May as well buy steel braided lines.

 

yep front rotors and calipers are identical....

 

actually the front knuckles do work but they give u mad negative camber like back to the future style......but they do bolt up
