http://hybrid2.honda-perf.org/tech/4g-brakes.html check that out. that's the correct way to do it without any problems what-so-ever! i think there will be camber issues and clearence issues with the upper control arm hitting the chassis if you use the EG stuff. hope it helps..peas

knuckle part numbers seem to be different from the EX (92-95) to CX (92-95). i would check the brake caliper spacing to see if it fits. also if the rotors are different size. im guessing thats the difference.

the calipe mounting points are different from the ex to the cx, just look at them on the ex they stick out further to accomodate the larger rotors
