Default 99-00 Suspension on a EG CX

Im about to pick up some 99 SI suspension for a really good price, the suspension should just bolt right on and work..... right, besides having to convert the rears to disks?

For anyone whos done this how were the results?
Also I tried searching, SI is not your best word to search

No, Integra DC suspension is compatible with yours. 96-00 and 99-00 Civic susp. may bolt up but it's not the same.

The 99-00 Si front sway bar will ONLY work if you use the matching 99-00 Si LCAs & end-links. The rear LCAs & shocks will NOT work. 96-00 Civic LCAs are about an inch longer than the EG/DC LCAs. They are also skinnier, so the EK shocks lower mount won't fit over the EG LCA bushings.

The rear discs/trailing arms will work fine, but you will need a 90-00 NON ABS integra proportioning valve. 92-95 NON ABS Si, or 93-97 NON ABS/Rear Disc Del sol prop valve will work too (and mabey 90-91 CRX Si).

I don't know if your getting the e-brake cables or not, but you should get ones from a 92-95 Si, or any 2dr 94+ integra.

If your adding the 10.2" front brakes to your CX, you also need a 7/8" master cylinder. You can get one for the 93-95 EX 2dr (NON ABS). It is a perfect match for those brakes, and will bolt directly to your stock brake booster...

The '93-95 EX non-ABS coupe had a 13/16" MC.

works fine, just use the trailing arms from the EK but keep your stock LCA. And get an EG SI ebrake cable or if you can get the EK ebrake cable. Also, if your using the shocks and springs, you should press your LCA bushings out to Prothane, or energy suspension.

To 94eg!, I'd like to apologize and make a correction. The '93-95 EX non-ABS coupe did indeed have a 7/8" master cylinder as you originally stated. My mistake.
