do a google search. there are step by step guides there. also, since this is directly related to your other post, you should be posting in that same thread.

FYI proportioning valves have nothing to do with the E-Brake. The E-Brake is operated by a physical cable that locks the rear brakes when you pull up the E-Brake lever.

Personally, I bought the correct proportioning valve for my swap but never installed it. I've never had any issues with the original valve but if you have access to the correct valve you might as well swap it.

The step by step guide is also in the FAQ. Shouldn't be hard to find.

^not true. I have the stock prop valve and my rear disks work fine. You should not have any problems. Like it was mentioned, the ebrake works off the cables.

true..but the pedal is going to feel kinda spungy...so if you get the 40 40 prop valve from a DA integra you will all set...

what front and rear disc brakes set up do you have?

maybe this spreadsheet might help you.



if your brake pedal feels spongy, have you bled them yet?

No. My brake pedal is rock hard. I had the entire brake system purged/flushed of the old brake fluid. Let me tell you, it was crazy dirty. It made such a big difference to have clean brake fluid. Now, I can stop on a dime!

you definalty don't need the new prop valve. when I did my rear disks all I did was put in all new fluid and I have a firm pedal and good solid breaking.
