Default 89 crx + 91 rear disc / 89 ebrake lines? will they work?

89 Si + 91 Si disc upgrade

Seems like they might and has anyone ever bought a crappy 20$ "Ebrake cable repair kit" to get that extra length?!

I'm confused as to what do you mean by your question. If you're talking about installing 91 Si rear brakes to a 89 DX or lower model CRX then yes the e-brake cables will be needed form the 91 set-up. However, why do you want to use a 91 Si rear disc set-up for an 89 Si???????

because the 89 Si comes with drums on the rear.....
RETARD
kidding, much love.

The best advice i've gotten is call honda and see if the 89 and 91 Si cable Part # is the same. just havent done it yet. Postponing installing them until i get a Wilwood 11" package.

if you're gonna upgrade to rear discs, make sure you snag up the rear trailing arms as well....

The 89 cables will not work with the 91 discs. The cable end is totally different from the drums to the discs. The cable will not attach to the disc brake caliper.

THANKYOU! A REAL ****** ANSWER. That was awsome dude. You rock.

The 89 cables will not work with the 91 discs. The cable end is totally different from the drums to the discs. The cable will not attach to the disc brake caliper.
Ah.. i'm so satisfied...

And yea.. i already got the whole assembly like a month ago, its complete, guy just couldnt find one of the ebrake cables otherwise i'd be set, so in actuallity i only need one. Just didnt want to waste my time taking off a cable to see if it matched when i could just ask here. Thanks to all, especially jaker!
