Re: How to put X brakes on your 96-00 EK Civic (Harryflores)
THanks, now i see that
In order to use DC/tegra's front brake i would <U>need</U> EX/SI front knuckle assembly.
Darn i just passed up a 99 Si front whole knuckle assembly included=caliper ,pads,rotors and lower and upper ball joints for 40 bucks
Thanks for the thread starter, very informative, this is wat honda-tech community is all about. Each one Teach one

Awesome info.
One thing though.
The 99-00 Si proportioning valve is exactly the same as the non-EX 96-00 one. Same part number from Honda.
war all of the time......

Re: (blinx9900)
"**to 91-96 NSX (not OEM)
Take the rear spindle (with bearing, hub) from a 99-00 Civic Si and swap them onto the Civic DX. Use the NSX calipers, pads, caliper mounting bracket, and 10.3" front Civic EX rotors and bolt them onto the Civic DX. Use the 99-00 Civic Si e-brake cables."
can anyone confirm this with first hand experiance?

Something doesn't sound right there.
If it is correct, then it sure doesn't sound like a good idea . . . it's way too much rear brake. You don't need vented rotors back there.
