The first one is the Civic MC, the second and third are the GSR MC. The third one shows the fitting connection that is larger than the others.

I will be getting some 5th gen civic EX sedan cables because the EH8 had discs (some if not all). I figure that would be a better candidate for a good fit considering it will undoubetly fit the car, my concern is whether or not it will fit the discs. Thoughts?
I didn't get around to doing the intake, but I think I'm going to take it to a local shop to have it polished.

It's really going to mess up my chage pipe positioning too so I'm a little hesitant...

Yes, DO IT! Those things SUCKED and they're in the worst place. Having a B18 in there makes it hard too...
If I could do it all over again, I would have taken my intake manifold off. Having it in the way for just about everything made it really annoying.
I would also recommend that you get one of those wrenches that are almost a box end, but have a little break in them specifically made for brake line fittings - a 10mm. That will be a huge help!

hfawk:
awesome stuff.
that is a lot of work also.
I take it you put on the whole rear trailing arm?
If so get an alignment asap.
You know I have to nitpick.
Put some poly trailing arms bushings in?
Brake setup sounds good. I never put the 1" MC in myself, but I'm sure the pedal feel will be phenomenal.
Get the Skunk2 manifold opened up to 68 mm, and get a bigger tb. That shit will really open up your motor. It did on mine, and it's was NA. On your turbo; shit, good hp increases i say.
Sounds like you've got everything wrapped up. Go ahead and sell it, and buy a project mr2 with me

wow very nice josh. i myself is gonna tackle a similar job soon and it consist of:
-integra full disc brakes all round
-brembo crossdrilled/slotted rotors
-aem front and rear pads
-earls steel braided lines
-prothane poly trailing arm bushings
-integra rs non abs mc w/ booster
i went the extra mile and clean the trailing arms and front spindles and painted them high heat gloss black, and a wire brush to the calipers with a high heat clear coat, leaving them a shiny polish look.

I'll check into doing that intake like that. I'm probably going to wait until I build the new block to put the intake on there. It's going to be so sick!
I actually JUST had an alignment done and I marked where everything was so I put it back on the exact same.
h:You know I can't sell this thing. I still have so much to do.

Thanks for the invite though!!! hahah
Outxider: thanks man!
I actually did a lot of research before I bought my rotors and I'd have to tell you not to get the x-drilled/slotted rotors. I took off my Brembo x-drilled/slotted rotors while doing this job and the drills were starting to crack after only about 15k miles.

I pained all of my calipers and brackets, but didn't get a chance to clean up the trailing arms like you mentioned. I'm usually very anal about that stuff, but I got to the point on this job where it was time for it to be done. :chuckles:
Let me know if you run into anything that you need some tips on.
