ok well i've got the earls ss lines on the car and i never really thought of upgrading to integra calipers and rotors front and rear, mainly b/c it stops quick enough, but i think i can get all four for really cheap.

i've also got access to the front clip it came with (the jdm 90-93 integra a/t xsi) so I guess I could try and get the master cylinder and prop. valve also?

in short: if i get the brakes, will they work with the lines i already have?

E-brake cable is needed, prop valve (from what cars? and master cylinder?

oh yeah and will eg front brakes from the sir work?

this includes the knuckles and everything

 

Yes it should work, most integra parts and civic/crx parts you listed are incherchangable. On my swap I got away using crx brake lines, so should be fine. Both front and rear. To do the swap correctly you will need the following.

90-93+ non ABS stuff, rear trailing arms, hubs are use your stock drum ones if they work better, complete brake system, rotors, calipers mounting brackets etc. You can use your stock lower and upper arms. You can either use a 90-91 crx si e brake cable or custom fit (shorten) 90-93+ integra e brake cable like I did. To work the best you will need a 90-93+ brake booster, 90-93+ Integra master cylinder 15/16 or get one from a 94+ Integra GSR 16/16, or a 90-91 crx si one will work but either of the two I just mention will work better. 15/16 good, 16/16 better. You will also need a 90-93+ Integra 40/40 perportining valve or a 90/91 crx si perporting valve 40/40 but they have to say 40/40 on it.

 

what he said^

if you have earls lines for a civic with rear drums you will have to replace the rears with ones from a crx with rear disk or a 90-93 integra w/ rear disk.

some of the crx's came with a 20/40 prop valve so be sure of what your getting, it probably be best to get one from a teg though b/c they all had 40/40 prop valves

also you can use the rear disks from a abs integra, you just remove all the abs components... thats what i did and mine and it works fine.

 

Yes the lines will work, they worked for my crx.

hmmm, one guy said i need differnt rear lines, and others didn't. maybe i'll call earls and find out...if i need differnt ones screw it. drummies have lasted close to 5 years w/out any maint.


but if they will work, heck bigger brakes for less than 100

It will work. Make sure you got a 10mm flare wrench.

 

thanks doods, btw fourthgenhatch's how to's are very nice

 

I don't see how the SS lines for drum brakes would work with the disc brakes. The disc lines have a banjo fitting on the caliper, with the hose going from the fitting on the body right to the caliper. The drums have a shorter hose going from the fitting on the body to a fitting on the trailing arm, going into a hard line to the wheel cylinder. How would the SS lines for drums connect to calipers?

I got SS lines for a 90-91 CRX Si, and they bolted up prefectly. I didn't have to shorten my e-brake cables on my Integra brakes. Also, I think mine were ABS, because I removed wheel speed sensors from them.

I used the Integra 15/16 master, Integra booster and stock Civic prop. valve. The Civic lines bolt right to the Integra master. I don't have any plans to change the prop valve, it works fine.
