Wait, what brakes do you have first? Do you have Integra front brakes and rear disks or stock brakes that came with your car?

Oh, you live in Spain? So you have a Civic VTi? You can get a 7/8" (don't know if they measure it in metric over there) master cylinder.

You should have a 15/16" master cylinder, which is fine for your stock brake system. The EG6 should have the 17CL14VN front calipers and rear discs as standard equipment. The SiR-II has ABS, correct?

The only upgrade option you really have is a 1" MC from certain '94-01 Integras. It may require you to change to an Integra brake booster and to modify the lines to bolt it up. It's really not worth the trouble.

There are a few aftermarket options out there (Tilton Engineering comes to mind), but I am not sure what sort of custom work is required to install them.

I honestly feel that the stock Nissin 15/16" piece is just fine.
