Default Specific Rear disc swap question for 96-00 civic

I know about the search function, but I couldn't find the specific information i needed.
I'm very close to purchasing the rear disc conversion from a 92 or 93(?) Civic Si. I was told it will fit my 1996 civic coupe, but i would like to double check to see that i have everything right.

1. the trailing arm will bolt up no problems,
2. i can use my LCA and UCA
3. i'll use the ebrake cables from the new disc setup
4. i'll need new brake lines, preferably from a 99-00 Si (SiR for me heh) or 94+ integra
5. i'll need a 40/40 proportioning valve from a Si (SiR) or integra
6. recommended 15/16 master cylinder from same cars

anything i messed or anything information incorrect? i would liike to make sure everything is ready to go when its time to install. Thanks!

Any rear disc is the same, whether it be from integra, del sol, or civic.
Yes
Yes
Yes (Cables that best match your chassis)
Yes (all hoses are the same too)
Yes (some say no...I say yes)
Kinda - You will want a master cylinder larger than the one on the drum/non-abs civic. You can use a booster/mc set from an em1, integra, del sol vtec, or civic abs. Also, you can get the master cyl only from the 91 civic sedan that is 15/16 and bolts up to the stock booster.
Personally, I would do the booster AND mc from an integra and get 1" or 15/16"...and I did

I have a Canadian Si or EX in the states.. so i don't have to replace my master cylinder/brake booster?

em1 is the sir - it has a 7/8" booster
You have a smaller one...you should change the mc at least (but unless you get the 91 civic mc (search for detailed info) it will not bolt to your booster~~buy a set)

There were NO periods in that entire post!
What did you even say?? No one is concerned about what shocks, wheels, bushings, blah blah blah you have........
Dont post things that youre not sure about - all rear disc setups are IDENTICAL.
Prop is not needed for hatches, amazingly - they share the same prop as the em1. ABS or not, doesnt matter, if there are drums in the rear.
