Default When I install the 15/16" MC/Booster onto my rex SI...(quick question

When I put the 15/16" MC and Booster off a Non-ABS 90-93 integra onto my 1991 CRX Si...(wrote it out to make sure I'm right)

Can I still use my brake lines?
Is the swap a bolt-in process, as simple as pulling my MC/Booster out and putting the new one in?


Thanks. I've been searching/reading, and have gotten this far, but just want to be sure.
BTW, Heres what I'm planning to do 'brake-wise' on my car, for those curious:

Brembo Blanks
Good brake pads- Hawk/Axxis... idk yet.
Teg 15/16" MC as well as Booster from the 90-93 non-ABS teg
SS brake lines
and some good fluid, like Superblue Racing or something.

Thanks again
-Andrew

I'm not sure that M/C even bolts up man. As far as I know everyone uses the 15/16" from the 90-91 Civic Ex or the same size one from the 88 Prelude Si. Prelude you have to bend one hardline to bolt it up. 90-91 EX bolts right up.

I personally have never heard of someone putting a 90-93 teg MC on. I may just be out of the loop though!

But you can use the 90-93 if you change the booster? Interesting. Hadn't heard of that combination before. I'd stay away though, replacing boosters is a royal pain the rear. I wouldn't replace it unless your current one is broke.

I have the 90-93 integra (NON ABS) brake booster and master in my CRX. Worked out awesome. It's not that bad to install. It made the brakes feel alot more powerful. The booster is noticeably larger and the pedal became firmer than when I just had the 89 integra master cylinder installed.
