righto on the lines... as for cables, 92-95 Si, 92-95 EX 2-door w/ rear discs and 94+ integra 2 door e-brake cables will work. Don't get the 4 door ones, theyre a little bit too long.

I got my SS lines from raceconcepts.net for $85 shipped. They're no-name lines, but the fittings are good quality. If you wan't name-brand, EARL's or goodrich are good choices... they're usually around $100... ask Josh for a price.

Thanks alot. Are you sure the 4 door ones are too long? Read what was posted here https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...ad.php?t=60904 , I was just looking at a parts site and they are selling both RH and LH side cables. I guess I will need both sides right?

yeah, the doood's thread confirms: 2door w/ 2door, 4door w/ 4door. And yes, you need both cables for the e-brake to work (I only have one right now h: )

:edit: :doh: sorry, reading owns me... I was opperating under the assumption that you had a coupe. Duh... yeah, you'll need 4-door EX e-brake cables or 94+ 4-door teg cables.

Thanks alot for all your help. As soon as I get all the cables and lines Ill start on the conversion. I still need to find the mc, booster and prop valve too. Another thing I am confused about are the bushings. Since Im gonna have the whole suspension out I figured I might as well replace all the worn out bushings. Should I get a kit for a civic or integra? For the trailing arm I got the mugen ones, but what about for the rest of the suspension.

replacing all the bushings is a BIG job. Takes lots of time, and helps to have access to a press. I just did the trailing arms along with the swap, and I'm following up with the rest of them now. Really if youre just doing it for convenience's sake, the trailing arms are the only ones that need to go in w/ the brake swap, but if you wanna tackle the whole job, go for it.

I guess if I have the time I will do the whole car. Ive been reading alot of posts and it seems pretty easy with a press. A friend of mine one of these http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...temnumber=4711 .
