Default 1" type r master cylinder on ek hatch

i'm about to buy a 1" master cylinder and booster for my car, but i just wanted to make sure that it will work okay... would it be better to get a 15/16" master cyl from say a civic si? also the fact that the 1" is made for abs, will that mess anything up on a non abs equipped car?

Either one will work. The ITR may require bending the brake lines. Also switch out your prop valve.

if you don't have ABS it won't work easily.

ABS fittings out of the MC are larger than non ABS fittings. 15/16ths will work great.

Is the JDM ITR any different? I swear my mechanic used the R one with minor adjustments

How are the fittings different? I have a 99 Civic Si right now, and it's about time I replace the Master Cylinder and thinking about getting the Type R, wondering how muc work is involved to get it to fit and work properly, any help on this would be great.
