Default Brake Lines to upgrade with rear disc swap?

I've asked this once before but I can't find the thread anymore and I want to double check.

If I buy SS Brake Lines for my 4G Civic Hatchback with 2G Integra Rear Discs, what car would I buy the brake lines for. I believe it was either 2G CRX Si w/R. Discs, and perhaps 5G Si. But I want to make sure. If I got the CRX ones I would be fine for using them on the front and back of my car, correct?

I would believe your car, since your car could be a different length.

Anything after that question made no sense to me. I would think no matter what brakes your have, you need to get them for your car. Your car is a different size then a CRX, I'm not sure about the Integra, but to be safe I would get the Hatchback lines.

How does that not make sense? I cannot buy 2 Civic Hatchback front lines and 2 Integra Rear lines, I have to buy the whole kit for one car. So I know the Integra Rear will fit, but is the front the same as my Civic? Since CRX Si had same fronts (I think) and rear discs on the back which are similar to the Integras, I would assume it would fit. Anyone who actually knows the answer will understand.

OK so far I've searched and found a guy saying that the SS lines made for a CRX Si 90-91 (which had rear disc brakes) should work on my Civic. Anyone confirm this?

the crx ones and integra ones will fit, the only ones that would be shorter on the crx would be the hard lines.

Let just clear some's....

I've got a '90 CRX si.(4 wheel disk)
I've got the 11" disk from Fastbrakes in front w/ Integra caliper.
The rear disk on the CRX is the same as the Teg,Del Sol,99-00 Si and 92-93 Hatch.

I'm using the stainless line for a CRX.It all fit well.

So The back will fit.
As for the front,mine as the caliper more toward the front and I'm still using the Rex stainless line with no problem.

With all that,that should explain your question.

The rear stainless line made for a disk set-up won't fit a drum one.
