Default 91 CRX w/fastbrake kit....need to know about brake lines!

I have heard that the crx si stainless lines won't fit on the 90-93 calipers, Is this true??? I just bought the fastbrakes adapter kt and have the vw corrado rotors,90-93 integra calipers. I wanted to use my stainless braided lines i bought awhile back but people are saying they don't fit.

Do i need special lines for this kit?

Why won't crx si lines work??

Dunno about 90-93 Teg calipers but my Fastbrake kit with 94 and up Teg calipers were fine with using Goodridge braided lines for 90 and CRX

Talk to Fastbrakes...they are amazing...they donated the kit to our project. He can tell you why they will or wont work and can hook you up with some stainless lines.

Fastbrakes are good guys, he wants $80 just for front lines though. Thats pricey if its a standard crx stainless line. You can get a whole kit for $85 front and back!! But if its a custom size to fit the crx with acura caliper its another story,lol.

There is a company on here selling braided steel lines for honda's with a color coating, I did not save the link something "hid" or with lights was his user name....He said the crx stock lines won't fit and i would need conversion lines. I never heard this but wasn't sure.

Called fastbrakes today and no answer...does he have a pm on here?????

Why did you use the 94+ caliper on the crx??

Fastbrakes said there was no difference and piston was same size!!!

I got 90-93 calipers rebuilt but look like new for like $40 no core charge either! So i went with those.
