I need help a friend just wreaked his Type R, and is letting me have the disc conversion as long as I take them off my self. So my question is what all off of the DC2 will need besides the disc .... please help
take out every suspension parts. brake lines, drive shafts( u don't need to but what the hell rite?) trailing arms, camber arms, LCAs, whatever you can get. switch all suspension parts to type-r. not just the brakes.

can i have the motor, i'll come pull it out. but just take everything from the type r and swap it over. the most important is the e-brake cables and the brake lines.

Front: knuckles with the calipers n' disks. You won't use the DC upper A arms or the LCAs
Rear: complete trailing arms with the calipers and disks. You won't need the DC LCAs
Take the whole brake booster and Master Cylinder. * recommended
Take the 5 lug wheels... or buy my extra Prelude wheels
* also recommended
To put them on a 96-99 Hatchback, you'll need to buy 99-00 Si brake lines as well as the ebrake cables/hardware. If you decide to use the ITR MC, you'll need a 99-00 SI prop valve.
I have the setup on my 99 hatch. I love it.

You don't need to swap over the Si prop valve unless your car is an EX. I was under the same misconception and spent the time and money to swap it over with my previous car. However, after I did the brakeswap on my current car (2000 hatch), the prop valve stayed the same and the brakes work exceptionally well.
