did my Integra rear disk conversion today!

I don't have any pics of the install, sorry. I will try to post some pics of the finished project later. The install went pretty smooth, took a few hours, and distroyed one upper controll arm bushing. I used the upper control arms from the Integra and my camber is like really straight. it's good that it is straight but now my 17" tyres rub the arches. I am going to switch to the civic upper control arms, and hopefully it goes back to neg. camber again. I also bought brand new Acura Integra 90-93 hand brake cables from the dealer. They worked perfectly! What I am going to do now is go back to the same Integra and get the fronts. When I do that, I will get all new rotors and pads. The brakes work so good, better than I expected. If anyone has questions on the swap just ask.

Sweet....did you swap master cylinders? or still using your stock one?


gunnmen01

still have the stock one in there.

Damn, i know we can upgrade to a bigger one....just need to know which car it comes from.... im guessing a 5th gen ex model with the 7/8's one...as opposed to our 13/16's one.......we can use the proportioning valve to i think...but i dont know...


gunnmen01

yeah, I have a master from an Integra type-r that is going in my 92. Then that master from the 92 is going in the 91. did you follow that?
There is a prop. valve that is 40/40, I want that one, but I don't know what car to get it from. I belive it is from a type-r. I need to find out.

So is the 92 M/C a 7/8" one?


gunnmen01

I am not sure, I was just looking at it and it looks exactly the same.
I don't thik there is a difference.

If anyone has done the rear disc swap on a 4 door, what ebrake cable did you use?

Sweet, glad to here it has all gone to plan, shame u bought em u coulda had em of mine :( , speak to ya l8r m8

Cheerz

There will be a number on the left side of the M/C, for the 92 will be either 13/16 or 7/8, the 7/8 applies more force when you hit the brakes....hhmmmm oh well i guess ill just give it a shot...

Hey guys...I think you can use the 90-93 Integra Master cylinder too!

Check out this link to the ZC resource...It has great diagrams and instructions for this conversion. --> http://www.thezcr.com/html/sirbrakes.php

There is a wrecked 91 Integra at a local junkyard, I just need the time to go rip the parts off. ;)
