Default 88 DX HB Master Cylinder Upgrade

I have a 88 honda civic hatch DX, it has a B18b, i am using rear drums for right now.. My master Cylinder is shot and I dont have money to upgrade my brakes all around but i do plan on going to 4 disk later on. But for now i need a new master cylinder and i was wondering if the EX MC 15/16 would bolt right up to my BB. If not i will just buy a MC for my 88 DX because i dont have the money for both.. Please help me out also let me know if there is any other MC that is an upgrade that i dont have to change out my BB or bend lines.

I beleive you need to replace the booster also if you are switching to the 15/16 MC from the Integra.

Ah, gotta love noobs.

Anyway, the EX MC is 15/16 and will bolt up to your brake booster. And if you plan on going 4 disk, go for it. You also want a 40/40 prop valve when you go 4 disk.

An Integra MC is 15/16, but you will need the booster from the integra as well if you want to use that. And you might need to mess with the lines.
