Default 98 cx drums to disc......

hello all, now i know this is prolly a dumb question but i haven't found specific posts on cx rear disc conversion, just ex and lots of eg swaps. now my question is what all i need and what i can use from my car already. i have recieved the hubs and arms in a trade, so i know i need the rotors and ebrake cables, so which ebrake cable? which proportioning valve? etc. thanks guys.

I think your prop valve is the same as the SI. I remember them having the same part number at Honda.

oh and my other question was; i plan to upgrade to ss brake lines but most sets come front and rear, so if i get the ones for the 99 si then will the fronts fit on my 98 cx?

They aren't and they don't. CX/DX hatch and Si/HX coupe are the same. The LX and DX sedans are the same as each other but different than anything else and the EX coupe is off on its own.
