What kind of conversion? I took all the steering knuckle/brake setup off a DA. I believe they are an inch bigger. You can use the rear disk off the same car too. You can pretty much take all the brakes and suspension off the 90-93 DA Integras for that car. Which motor are you running. Cause if you have a DX/LX your going to need different axles as well. If your still running a D motor your going to need Si axles for the same year.

I'm pretty sure 89-91 Si & DX axles are the same.

90-93 Integra should have everything you're looking for.

For the rear it's ok, for the front I do not recommend unless you use DA/EX (90-91 Civic Sedan) knuckles.

for the rear, I'd get the newest possible GSR units so that you won't be stuck with changing the bearings, and all the rest of the stuff that's rusted to $hit!, like I had to
oh, for the Fronts, check FAQ

I don't use DA/EX knuckles. I used just the '94 integra front spindle and I am using '94 integra passenger axle and some kind of custom driver axle that I bought at advanced auto parts for 60 bux. The passenger b-series axle fits into my '89 Si transmission with no problems and the weird driver's axle is just a little short, but works, and fits, cuz otherwise I wouldn't be able to drive the car.

EDIT: complete front spindle, nothing was changed to to it.

this upgrade uses 10.1" gsr or civic EX rotors, mated to type R, legend, accord wagon, or nsx calipers (may be other options, too).

Not really... 60 bux isn't that bad for a new axle.

Better than saving that $60? I didn't have to buy any axles.

DA is an Acura Integra years 1990 to 1993. Depends on where you can find it, but for front and back suspension i am going to say 300 to 400 bux. I got my DC conversion (Integra 94-??) for 500. That was for front and rear discs. Everything suspension included.

That's too much for just the fronts. Tell him if he's your boy he better hook you up better than that.

I got DA front & rear for $350 from a stranger, just to compare. Definitely not a killer deal, but still. I wouldn't pay more than $200 for complete front spindles.

That's a rip considering I sell GSR/SI conversions for $350 for both front and rear.
