GSR Brakes into 2000 DX Questions
Looking for some input from people that have possibly done this swap.
I've been reading up on what needs to be done to put GSR brakes into a 00 EK. I'm needing some clarification on what I'm going to need from the GSR donor car.
I've come across a guy parting out a GSR and have an opportunity to pick up the brakes and suspension for a good price.
Planning on getting:
Front brake assembly
Rear brake assembly (trailing arms & LCAs, etc)
GSR Master Cylinder
GSR Prop. Valve
I've read that the best thing to do is use a 99-00 Si E-Brake cable.
Do I need to get the lines from the GSR? What's the best approach with the lines?
I've read that the GSR MC will work, but will take some modification to the brake lines. Is the modification all that extensive? Would it be worth the extra cost to invest in a 99-00 Si MC and Prop valve?
I'm really trying to have everything lined up and have all my parts/materials when I start the swap so I can do it in one day.
Thanks in Advance

GS-R should be ABS, ABS civics and integras don't have a real proporting valve. You can either reuse the civic one (CX and DX hatchbacks use the same prop valve as the Si coupe, so does the HX, all others are different. Or you can use one from a '98 - '01 RS integra. As for the MC you can use one from a '99 - '00 Si coupe or a '98 - '01 Integra RS.
