Which prop brake valve for Hybrid brakes for EF civic
Which prop valve should i use for the "final " brake setup?
I have a 1990 Honda Civic Standard hatch model.
I want to put on bigger brakes.. so
I went to pick and pull and purchased DA integra knuckles/ Hubs.
I also have entire front brake system for 93 Civic Ex coupe; brake calipers (stamped "16CL14VN"), brackets, discs, pads & brake hoses.
NOTE:
I would like to use swap out EX coupe brake bracket for the Integra "17CL14VN" to use larger Integra brake pad.
I am assuming the Integra's front brake pads are Larger & cheaper than 93 ex coupe.
&
Later i will upgrade to DC coupe Rear Trailing Arm for disc brakes bcuz bushings and overall conditions are better than DA. I believe i can also use DC coupe brake cables on my hatchback.
I got the idea from this link:

You will need a 40/40 prop. valve either from a Civic EF EX/SI or DA integ.
You should also upgrade the mc and bb from the DA or DC integ since they are 15/16. Your Honda mc is 13/16. The integ mc bolts are angled different from your civic. This is the reason why you need the integ bb instead of using the civic bb.
The DA/DC coupe ebrake cables are same length. Yes they will fit the hatchback.
The new bigger caliper/rotor upgrade is Type-r callipers and mini cooper rotors. Which will be my next upgrade.
