Big Brakes -> Bigger MC?
I'm ordering the big brake set-up from fastbrakes.com, and I was wondering whether I need to get a bigger master cylinder to accomodate them. I plan on doing the rear disc conversion as well, so I think a bigger MC is in order, but the question is, where do I source it from? Eightohone - you've done this same swap (front discs),right? Did the new setup just bolt right on, or did you have to get new steering knuckles or something...

if you are switching to rear disks i suggest a new master cylinder, i believe the ones from an 89 teg will mount right up. i believe jeef has that on his crx.

I emailed Brian Hasty (the guy who runs fastbrakes.com and wrote a few of the brake swap articles on the hybrid web page) and he says that the 90-91 Ex MC will bolt right on.

Are you doing stock rear discs in the back and aftermarket in the front? I think that any 90+ Integra Master Cylinder would work also but correct me if im wrong.

I'm not totally sure yet what is going in the rear, I'll make that decision when price time comes. I'm not just gonna pull any old caliper and rotor off of a junked rex, so who knows how much new part are gonna cost. Luckily I found a 90 or 91 crx si at a local junkyard, so if I need to grab those rear trailing arms, I have a donor. I snagged a nice headlight off of it, because mine was all ugly and yellow. I feel much better now. Still need that damn fender though
