Ok ive got a 97 EK hatch and have a rear disc brake conversion from an integra.
I need to know a few things.
1) i will be putting lca's on the car when i do the brake conversion along with full suspension uprgrade. full coilovers,camber kit, asr brace, sway bar. the works!! with me doing this will it be fine if i run function 7 lca's and if so how will it effect my suspension geometry. also what lca's do i need to get if im using a integra brake conversion.
sorry if this has already been covered. but didnt find this in a search.

You will want to use LCA's designed for your chassis. The 96-00 Civics had slightly longer rear LCA's than the 94-01 Integra that you got your swap from. Using the shorter 94-01 Integra LCA's will pull the bottom of your tires in, you don't want that.

You need rear braided brake lines for an integra. The fronts should be for your civic (unless you changed the front brakes)...
As for cables, I'm not 100% sure, but I think the Integra ones will work. It would be best for you to search the 92-00 Civic forum to confirm this.
Also, make sure to follow the OEM instructions for resetting the parking brake system...
