Ok, I got all the parts to pull off this rear brake disc swap, but the brake lines because i was thinking of getting braided stainless steal lines, and i don't know whether i should get civic or integra brake lines. Any help there? Also, I've read that it would be more beneficial to have a larger bored master cylinder. I know that the EX will bolt right on, but is it the same bore as the DX? Could I put an integra's master cylinder in there? Would I have to do any major modifying of the brake lines or anything like that? Does the integra even have a larger bore on it's master cylinder? Thanks

The brakes lins you would want would be for the donator car. Not because it's an integra or whatever. It because the drum and disc brake lines are different. So get them for the car you pulled th rear disc brake stuff from.

As for the master cylinder. It would be a good idea to upgrade that and the proportionate valve. Do not buy an abs porportionate vavle. Get one off of a 99-00 civic si with out abs.
lots of people with ek's i know us the 99-00 civic si master cylinder. you can most probably use an integra one. i'm not sure on the ek stuff.


the integra sizes are bigger. you most probably have a 13/16, and the integra without abs have like 15/16 master cylinders, and the abs integra's have 1" master cylinders. using the 1" abs master cylinder usually requires bending and reflaring of the lines.

1" is the one to use i'd say but other have been happy with the 15/16's master cylinder.
