I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say you need 90 HB brake lines. I mean, cause the distance is the same right?

Yes.

And Either 90-91 Si Brake lines or 91-01 teg will work too.

If you are lucky enough to find some 1990-1991 civic EX knuckles, then yes the ITR (same as the accord wagon) caliper will bolt on with minor modifications. IMO a better system then the Fastbrakes kit. The EX is the only 4th gen that had 10.2 rotors on it. I then used a 11" 1995 Prelude VTEC rotor, redrilled to 4x100. I *believe* the VW corrado rotor is a 11" 4x100, so I will be using them when I need to replace the rotors I have on the car now.

Does anyone know if the triangle shaped piece that bolts the brakeline to the front shock with the two 10mm bolts is "moveable" on Goodridge brake lines?

My problem is, the stock brakelines will not bolt to my front shocks with the EX knuckles on there. I was hoping to solve this problem when I switch from stock rubber to SS.

What modifacation did you have to do to your knucles for the ITR calipers?

And you can just use some zip ties to hold the brake lines to the shocks if you want.

you have to shave about 1/4 inch of material off where the caliper mounts to the Knuckle in order for the rotor to be centered in the caliper. Pretty easy to do. I like the setup alot.
