Default teg calipers on cx civic knuckles?

first how much bigger are the front brakes on a LS/GSR (DC4/2) than a 92 cx? and is it possible to just buy integra calipers, pads and rotors and bolt them on?

Rotors are about an inch bigger, caliper piston is a lot bigger. They make a huge difference, far more worthwhile that doing a rear disc swap.

No, you need the knuckles and flex lines from an Integra or '92 - '95 Civic EX. You also need a '94 - '97 Integra RS brake booster and master cylinder (or alternatively a '90 - '91 Civic EX master cylinder) prop valve should also be changed to a '90 - '97 Integra unit from a non ABS car.

i currently have a 40/40 prop valve. i believe my booster &master are from my old LS with ABS. obviously my cx doesnt have abs so im guessing i need to get new ones?

I already have rear disks on my civic from my old LS that i scrapped a while back. so do i need a NON-ABS booster and master? like i said in my post before i already have a 40/40 non abs prop valve.

If you already swapped the LS ABS MC on then no, it just requires bending and flaring lines when the non ABS version just bolts right up.
