I just purchased an entire f+r brake set up from a 95 Integra LS and plan to swap the parts onto my 92 Cx.

The seller gave me the the rear including the stock coilovers and sway bar. The front also included the knuckles the sway bar. The only piece that I am missing that I need is the Brake Booster ( I have the master cylinder and the prop. valve ).

Is the booster (once i get one) difficult to install? The person I purcahsed the brakes from said that he would have had to take apart the whole dash to get at it --is this true?

Assuming that I have the complete rear, what parts will transfer onto the Civic and which will not.

Are there any precautions I should consider before installing. Thanks in advance!

 

How will using the DC knuckle on the EG affect camber? I've been reading through articles and most of them compare the EG knuckle to the DA. Are the EG and DC basically the same, or will I run into problems.

How about the rear set up? Any problems to expect?

 

any help!?! Main concerns are geometry f+r and master cylinder, brake booster issue.

Okay, this has been cover 200 Million times, but I'm boared so here goes.

Sell the 1" integra master cylinder. Buy a 91 civic EX 4 door master cylinder (15/16ths). This one just "bolts on". Otherwise you need the integra booster & you have to re-bend & flare your brake lines. 15/16ths will work perfect for any civic without ABS. If you do decide to use the 1", the booster is just held on by four nuts where the brake pedal connects to the car & one pin that connects directly to the pedal.

The integra knuckles will bolt right on to your civic. The only difference is the caliper mounting bracket. Any civic w/ 10.2" brakes from the factory (all ABS models & EX 2 doors), comes with the exact same DC integra knuckles. The only knuckle problems between civics & integras occoured in the previous generations.

On the rears, ALL parts will transfer over. Did you get the parking brake cables & the 40/40 proportioning valve? You will need both those.

Installing the front sway requires you to drop the shift linkage, so be ready for that.


Here is some helpful info on brake swaps that apply to your vehicle & all the different problems I encountered (go to "notes" section)...

I realize this and appologize, but I've been filtering through about four different brake threads and have been reading a lot of conflicting info... Also, I was a bit confused about the knuckle size..thanks for clarifying that DC and EG knuckles are same geometry (unlike some of the earlier DA tegs).

For others, here are a few other good links:

I have the e-brake cables and the 40/40 valve. As far as the sway bars! Haha, I guess you learn something everyday....didn't read that on any other threads! Hopefully you have notes on that on the link you provided..


One minor question:: Is the rear coilover in the teg the same as the eg as far as size, fitment and compression/rebound? Thanks!

 

Looks like I was already looking at the link you provided...Thanks for the additional info..I guess I missed the fact about the sway bar.

 

I'm pretty sure the rear shocks of the EG & DC are the same part number. I know for a fact they are the exact same dimensions, but can't comment on valving. Most likely they are the same. My civic's OEM shocks seemed much stiffer than an integras, so I'm guessing they are the same & different feeling is due to the weight difference.

I just added the swaybar stuff (do a search for "bitch pin" on droping shift linkage)
