RSZero1 has an interesting idea that I am diggin into.

The 96-00 Civics all have the same part number for the Brake Booster....even the 99-00 SI.
Therfore, you can bolt a SI M/C right onto your exisiting booster. The biggest question is are the lines still the same even though your going from a 2 disk to a 4 disk.....

 

dang 10 reads and no one has any info to add?

 

master cylinder

bump for Spade

 

Bah.....I'm stoopid sometimes. LoL

 

SI MC is either 7/8 or 15/16

 

 

Damn, just checked....the 99-00 SI Master Cylinder is the same part number as the 96-00 EX.

 

the si m/c is 7/8", all others are 11/16 or 13/16"

I have one on my 98 dx hatch.

I also did the front/rear disc conversion from the 2000 si as well. Generally the proportioning valve takes care of regulating the pressure to what type of setup you have, disc/disc or disc/drum.

The 96-00 civics all have the same part number for the proportioning valve, so I didnt bother changing mine. My brakes work great, hanvt noticed a front/rear bias in braking peroformance.

I am not sure if this answers your question. or even if it helps, but I though you might want to hear from someone who did it first hand.

 

Yes. FYI, the EX/SI have the same MC.

 

Also, EX/SI MC is 15/16".

 

The proportioning valve part numbers are different from for the SI, EX and the HX.

 

My 96 EX has a 7/8"

 

you are correct.....sorry, I had just woke up

friends dont let friends post tired...

 

I have a 98+ integra 1" mc and booster on my 00 civic and all the lines went in perfectly.

 

So it didnt require any rebending, etc? and do you think you could've bolted up the M/C without the booster?

 

The mc will go on without the booster but the booster helps. No bending lines at all either.

 

i just want to do it as simple as possible, because changing the booster seems like a royal PITA.

 

Don't be a *****. If you have the MC off you might as well take off the booster while you are at it. It might take you an extra 20 minutes to put in the booster.

 

okay then , if it's that simple...lol
