disc brakes all around
what is the best way to go with putting disc brakes on my 89 hatch i got eg disc in the front right now but need the rears but would like to go ahead and do it all the same what all the parts i need and from what car works best i heard da integra is what i need but not sure all the parts i need to get is it just mainly the lower arms not sure let me know peeps and keep up hondaing the world
i got the all around da brake ready to be installed in my crx. So before you do a swap of brakes, i would change the bushings and add on some S.S. brakelines. i went on and got me some LCA's and awaitaing on my koni/gc before installing everything. Do what you can so you wont have to go back to it later.
The rear discs from a 91 CRX si work great, but tend to be a little hard to find. The DA integra rear discs are awesome and are a direct swap. Use the LCAs and UCAs from the DA or your stock two. I have read that they are slightly different lengths so use them as a set from one car. If you have a Civic hatch you'll need the DA e brake cables. If you're swapping to a CRX you'll need CRX si (with rear disc) e brake cables.
I have a set of Integra E brake cables for sale if you need them. Sometimes junk yards just cut them, so if you need a set I've got em for ya. I've done the swap a couple times, so let me know if you have any other questions. You'll need the proportioning valve from the DA integra and while you're at it get the booster and master cylinder. They're both bigger than the stock civic. A GSR or ITR master can be used as well, those would be even better. It's not necessary for the disc swap though. Good luck, I love my DA discs!

Sorry man, some one saw my post and bought my e brake cables today. I have a local junk yard that has the whole swap sitting on a car out in their u pull it yard. Let me know if you want me to get a price for ya.
I did a quick glance and they have all calipers, rear trailing arms, front knuckles, prop valve, booster, and master cylinder. I didn't look for the e brake cables, but I'm sure they have em. Let em know if you want me to.

Hey Ahknodd, I have an '88 crx si and would like a complete rear disc swap for it. Please email me at william.kessler@comcast.net
I'll check on them this weekend and since this is efrunner09 thread I'll offer them to him first. Sorry Kess, but I'll keep my eyes out for another swap or if efrunner09 doesn't take em you'll be first in line.
Now let me know what all you want. The whole swap would include:
Front knuckles (w/calipers, rubber lines, rotors)
Rear trailing arms(w/caliper, rubber lines, uca, lca, rotor, and e brake cables)
Proportioning valve
Brake Booster
Master cylinder
The only parts you NEED for a 4 corner disc swap are the prop valve, front knuckles, and rear trailing arms (will all parts included of course). The booster and MC are optional.
For a rear disc swap only you'll need rear trailing arms and the prop valve.
So let me know what you're looking for and I'll get a price. Should have time saturday afternoon.
Happy New Year guys!
