Default Brake lines for big brake swap (EX in front, DA/SiR in rear)

What year/model brake lines are the most appropriate for a 88-91 hatch with the following:

- EX 10.x" front discs & knuckles (basically the same as DA Integra)
- SiR 9.5" rear discs & trailing arms (again, basically the same as DA)

Do I use the 90-91 CRX Si 4 wheel disc lines? or 90-93 Integra? or the stock disc/drum length ones?

I would go with the 91 CRX Si ones (with rear disc). You cant use the drum ones...

I used the 90-91 crx si steel braided lines for my 88 crx, went with si rear discs, and GSR (DC) front brakes.
