Disc Brake Conversion - HondaClub.com

EFR · 04-10-2007, 08:27 PM

I am trying to do a rear disc brake conversion on my 88 civic dx hatch. I have a complete rear swap from a 95 integra special edition. I do not have ebrake cables or a proportioning valve. Does anyone know what ebrake cables & proportioning valve i need?

As far as Ebrake cables go, get the ones for the Si.

I believe the prop valve you want is off of the 99-00 Si. I might be wrong though, it's been a while since I've done this conversion. In my opinion, unless you are really driving hard, the prop valve is not necessary. I did the swap in my 88 Si CRX, changed the prop valve. I did he swap in my 89 Si CRX and didn't change the prop. The 89 is my winter beater and I have not had a problem yet.

If you do "spirited" driving though, I would recommend the correct Prop valve. Do a search on Honda-Tech, I'm sure someone there can tell you.
