Default Brake booster Q and A

Can i run a integra brake booster and master cylinder in a civic DX with stock discs and drums? I would assume yes, but still.

My booster is a little fucked and i want to chagne it out but do not what to do a disc swap just yet.

yes it will work. make sure you get one with the right fitting holes. some have one small and one big, and some have two small.(where the brake lines screw in)

Use 15/16 master cylinder and brake booster .. use it out of 91 civic ex four door or any 88+ integra which has 15/16.... fits like a champ

i have a 97 dx hatch and before i did my gsr swap brake swap, one of my first brake upgrades was an itr master cylinder and brake booster, install was pretty straight forward, just be sure to bench bleed and bleed the brakes. pedal feel was greatly imporved afterwards

If he gets a larger boster/mc while using his stock brakes, won't he just lock-up his brakes quicker making it harder to modulate the brakes?

If you use the MC from a 91 civic FOUR door, you won't have to change the booster and you still get the advantage of the larger MC. If you use any Integra MC you will have to use an Intrega booster. I have a 91 civic 4 door (you have to get one from a sedan) on my hatch. I love it.
