If you have the stock booster the only 15/16" MC that'll work w/o bending brake lines is from the 90-91 Civic EX sedan

i hate to call el vap wrong, but i was sure that for the 90-93 non-abs integra you had to change the booster because the flange for the m/c was rotated 90 degrees?

90-91 Civic EX M/C with stock booster. A good combo for the EX knuckles and brakes imo.

wrong again (not being nasty),

But I am running the 15/16 90-91 integra non-abs MC with the stock crx BB. It fits perfectly.

BRAKE PEDAL FEEL = Main difference
If you go Big Brake minus the Migger MC then you get a SWITCH like brake pedal it can lock up w/o much effort from the driver
If you go to a BIGGER MC like the 15/16 then you get more relaxed pedal feel-requiring more driver INPUT for the same lock up

Each person has their own preference
In an Emergency Situation I tend to stomp on the pedal
I'd hate to lock the brakes in an emergency situation
