crx si 90-91 e-brake cables.

Da cables are too long. EF hatches are too long.

For a daily driver stock LCA bushings are fine,however the integra ones are larger diameter than the crx ones so make sure to get the da bushings.Braided stainless or at least new factory soft lines,4040 prop valve and larger diameter master cylinder also helps with pedal feel/travel
Use crx DISC brake e-brake cables also at least on my 91 hatch the swap moved the wheels out about 1/4 inch,enough that me tires rub after the swap while they didn't before with no other changes,my car is on H&R sport springs and running 15x7 -40 offset wheels 195/50-15 tires

Look in the Civic Crx FAQ area theres a write-up in there,I have done the swap it doesn't really do much for a daily driver as for braking the disc assembly is actually heavier than the drums,it is fairly high on the bling factor. The 15/16" dia master if you want to get tricky you can just swap the hubs,rotors, calipers and e brake cables from one set of lca's to the other one of my friends has done it that way at least 5 times can be a bitch but can be done
