Front brake swap on an EK
I know this has been asked before but I have found a lot of conflicting information. I would like someone to state definitively the answers to these questions.
1) Will 94-01 Integra Front knuckles and brake assemblies work on a 2000 DX hatch?
2) Is there any difference in the geometry of these parts?
3) Will there be any issues with the brake lines?
4) Are there any other ramifications of this that I am not aware of?
Thank you.

1. It will work.
2. There is slight difference but very small and nothing to worry about.
3. Just use you civic lines but they will need to bent slight unless you get some si lines.
4. Hopefully you don't get bad parts. When I did mine I didn't realize I got a bad spindle so I had to replace and spend more money.

-- YES ... but you HAVE to use your DX upper A-arms. The DC upper A-arms are NOT the same as EK a-arms. Simply transfer them over to the DC knukkaz.
2) Is there any difference in the geometry of these parts?
-- To my knowledge, no. Camber/caster all that shouldn't be affected, I mean of course, you'll have to get an alignment just to reset everything, but you can still go on the same specs as your EK camber/caster/etc...
3) Will there be any issues with the brake lines?
-- For the fronts No. You can either reuse your DX lines or go with the GSR lines, its up to you.
4) Are there any other ramifications of this that I am not aware of?
-- yes, I GOT MAIL......YAAAAAAAAAY!!!
Thank you.</TD></TR></TABLE>
5) NO, you cannot use DA knukkaz & hub assembly on a EK......that geometry is way off/different. You can only use EK, EG, 94-00 DC knuckkaz/hub assy on an EK.
