99-00 Si Rear Disc Brakes! Direct bolt on swap!

All you would need is some elbow grease and if you have a DX you do not need a prop valve since it is the same as the 99-00 Si.

well you say you want the best huh! get a brembro kit or wilwood kit they are around 1500 for everything you need including brake lines!!!!!!if you wanna go cheap go to the pickapart and steal some parts off of an acura or something look for the type r or something nice like that!you will also need to get the proprtioning valve for the rears to work properly!

any civic from 92-00 with rear disc brakes and any integra from 90-01 will work.

with the exception of the 90-93 integra, they are all the same and will bolt and work.

actually no, dumping $1500 on a gaudy brake kit on a daily driven street car is not the best. not to mention how much rotors and pads will be when it comes time to change them.

steal some parts huh, great advice. not to mention you are wrong again. being that the op has a 96 civic, he will not need to change the prop valve being that it is the same as the civic si. it is a unnecessary job and headache.

Honda make great brake components. upgrading from your current setup is a wise decision. i would suggest while doing the swap to get a pair of steel braided lines, maybe upgrade you brake booster and master cylinder. with doing this you will see how much cheaper it is over a over-sized brake kit and you'll brake just as good if had purchased one.

Also good advice.
