all integra brakes from 90-01 are the same excluding the ITR. doesn't matter if they are ls, gs, gsr, and year doesn't matter, they are all the same.

90-93 da integra knuckles are meant for 88-91 ef civic/crx brake swaps. for the best alignment results, 94-01 dc integra knuckles are better suited on 92-95 eg civic

EFRue57's right: 90-93 da integra & 94-01 integra calipers are both stamped 17cl14vn; regardless if it from a ls, gs, rs or gsr (90-01 integra excluding itr). although the part #s are different, the parts are interchangeable (they share the same sized pads & 10.3" rotors). only minor difference: the 90-93 da integra uses a overhead pad spring

with DX calipers, use a DX master cylinder; so if you're upgrading to bigger front brakes, it'll require a bigger master cylinder since you need more fluid to push the bigger piston. keep your 92-95 eg civic DX brake booster & upgrade your master cylinder; a 90-91 civic EX sedan will bolt on with no modifications, oem honda part # 46100-SH4-A11

as for rear discs, you can source them from any civic or integra with a complete rear disc and swap out your drum trailing arms. you'll need disc brake hoses since they are longer than the drums. for proper brake bias, you'll need to use a valve propportioner from any rear disc without abs

yeah i forgot to put that in. i was thinking of the brakes themselves and didn't even consider the spindle. thanks for correcting that.

I dont think roastbeefrichie could be any more clear. its all in bold below. When upgrading the front to ANY of the integra front brakes (da or dc) you need to upgrade the master cylinder to, at the least, a 90-91 Civic Ex 15/16" master cylinder which will bolt directly to your booster. Any DA or DC rear disc trailing arms will bolt up but make sure you also use a rear disc prop valve (any 92-95 Civic Si rear disc non abs, 93-97 Del Sol rear disc non abs, or 90-93 Integra rear disc)
