Default 94 si rear to 92 dx (drum to disc)

Since its the same body, do i need the mc, brake booster or proportioning valve still? Or are they the same parts? Thanks.

They are not the same and it is highly recommended to upgrade the rest as well.

part numbers are the same for both for brake booster and master cylinder on http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/ , maybe just swap the proportioning valve?

The proportion valve is the most important. I'm pretty sure you can get away with the 15/16 MC but usually people upgrade to the 91 Ex sedan MC b/c its 1" and it fits onto the stock booster

on the firewall. follow some of the brake lines from the MC towards the center on the car and you'll see it

so i got someone to do the swap. he used 95 integra brake booster, master cylinder and proportioning valve. today i just noticed that my ebrake is not working but i feel tension on the ebrake handle. if i got someone to press on the brake, would i be actually be able to see the caliper move? i want to know if its just the parking brake cable not working. thanks.

It could be a seized rear caliper or a bad ebrake cable. disconnect the ebrake cable from the caliper and pull the brake handle have a friend look to see if the ends you disconnected move do this to both sides. If they do then they are ok and the caliper has a problem.
