brakes

i found a 95 4 door integra at the junk yard ,,would this be a good car to get the brakes off of?being a four door? also what motor is in it ,i couldnt get a good look due to front end damage,,,i think zc or b18??

Its a B18, and no you cant use the brakes off of it. You need 90-93 integras.

Yep, like Frodo said, you wont be able to use the brakes. Get brakes off a DA teg including MC, booster, knuckles etc. You can use the ls motor thats in it but you will either need to convert to obd1 or get obd0 ls stuff.

ok thanks alot,,and is a 90-93 brakes the same if its 2 door or 4 door?

2 door and 4dr brake parts are the same. Make sure you get non-abs parts. Also, the the DA front knuckles give you positive camber. Is you car lowered? The knuckles may throw your suspensions geometry out of wack if your at stock height.

Also, the the DA front knuckles give you positive camber. WARNING! the following message contains graphic thread jacking. View at your own risk:

this is why i try and read all the threads when i am learning about a car. i had no idea the knuckles would do that, very helpful info when i get my hatch. concidering my first grand into the car will be suspension parts, this might save me from getting a front camber kit.

This is a very sketchy topic. There have been many heated debates about DA knuckles. The general consensus is that the positive camber gained from DA knuckles complements the negative camber created from lowering. So if you car is lowered say 2 inches (about 2.5" neg. camber) and you add DA front knuckles (which add about 2" pos. camber) you will have a value closer to 0 (stock). Of course, there are still dozens of arguements about the possible pros or cons of having neg. camber for a racing application (i.e., better cornering etc.)

As for thinking about getting a camber kit, I dont recommend them. Frankly, my crx is lowered about 2.5" and I am not running a camber kit. A good alignment setting your front toe to dead zero solves lowering problems. The wear that lowering has created on my tires is negligible. All I hear about camber kits, (both good quality and ebay) are horror storries where the cheap joints have come apart causing hundreds more suspension damage. For what its worth, you can do without them. *Sorry for the thread jack*

CRXperiment - what kind of tires and size are you running? I'm doubting low pro's - like 40 series. I'm runniing 17's with 40 series tires and I wouldn't run anything but camber kits - even with my camber kit I'm still going through my tires prematurely (no, I don't do any burnouts) - just normal daily driving. When I lowered my car I was sitting at almost -3deg camber, which of any type of daily driving is unexceptable.

I have to vouch for crxexperiment's views. I have a 2 inch drop on my car. I'm running stock for rims and have marshall tires all round (I'm told they are made by kumho) the front tires have 20,000 kilometers on them and the rears have over 50,000.....the rears have normal wear on them and the fronts show no signs of wear as of yet...the funny thing is even with the car lowered the tire wear really doesn't appear to be un-even in any way. Its just my experience but I wouldn't waste time or money on a camber kit either. My buddy has an MX-3 with over 3 grand into his tires and rims and they do show lots of wear he was told the tires were a hard compound type to, but I guess it all depends on the car
