usually you just buy the brake cables for your style car that came with rear disc.. so if you have an EG coupe then you would buy Ebrake cables for an EG coupe that came with rear disc (the EX model) and the master cylinder you should get is the 40/40 one off an integra and make sure the car you get the master cylinder off doesnt have ABS

get a 97 ls master cylinder and booster to go with it.. the MC is 1 inch .. all you have to do is change one of the fitting on the hard line.. u can go to discount auto/ autozone / nappa and they will have the fitting.

i got a 92 teg LS trailing arms and didn't think it was the right ones but i mocked it up on my 93 civic hatch and saw no problems. everyone says that u have to get the 94-01 trailing arms for the disk conversion. am i missing something? or did i just get freak trailing arms that fit my car? help me out please!

EG EX coupes didnt come with disc breaks. only EG Si and i believe EX model sedans.

The ones with ABS did. Non ABS EX coupes had rear drums.

The only real difference is the trailing arm's bushing. The 90-93 bushings are a little bigger.

just a little info that was discovered on here but yes the integra master cly and booster combo does yield you a 1" master cly but if you get a master off of a 91 civic 4 door with ABS then you dont have to change out the booster and you dont have to bend or fix the second brake line and it yields a 15\16ths master which is almost the same with alot less headace. search and you will find it.

i believe 92-2001 civic and 94+ integras share the same trailing arms. you can use use ebrake cables might be long but you can. i used 98 integra complete rear trailing arms and rear disc, cables for my 96 civic coupe! everything fits nicely! make sure you get the right break line

i know the 94-01 will bolt up. cause thats exactly the same suspension as the 92-00 civics.
i just wanna know if the 90-93 integra will work. cause i mocked it up and looks like nothing is wrong. and i have 30 days to take the trailing arms back. so i kinda wanna find out asap if it'll work and get my moneys worth here.
and everywhere i read is "use 94-01" but i dont know what the differance is between mine and the newer one. besides the fact that the bushing is little bigger as someone stated before.
