Default eg disc conversion ?

I just put 95 gsr trailing arms, shocks, and lca's on my hatch. I also got the preportioning valve. Everything is on but the wheels arent straight. If i get it aligned will that take care of the problem? I also cant get brake pressure, I pumped the brakes up to bleed them and they wont get tight. Would that be because theres a leak in one of the fittings.

Yes, an alignment should take care of it, unless something is wrong with the TA's, like being bent.

And the loose feeling is probably that there is still air in the lines, but check the fittings anyway, and make sure there is no leaking around the PV you replaced.


Did you also replace the MC and booster?

Why did you put on integra lca's and shocks? Civic ones fit fine.

Rebleed and bleed again. Get an alignment

bleed until you just get so ******* sick of it, you want to throw up, and then you need to bleed them some more. I read about someone who bled there brakes about 100 times when they did a brake swap.

****, you guys are HUGE fans of bleeding the brakes. I did my rear conversion last weekend (00 si mc, prop, and booster, integ rear arms) and I just bled the brakes until the pedal was tight as hell, which just happened to be a full round twice.

My **** works fine, you do probably need to bleed them more and you definately need an alignment.

I did a full round 3 times, with about 8 bleeds per wheel per round. On the 3rd round, I actually started the car to use the brake boosters extra stomping power (probably not necissary though). The pedal is rock hard now...
