Oh, okay then the one I say was either a swapped d16, or an imported US Modeol. I think it was imported because it was badge EX, had a tach and an a6. Still had wheels so I couldn't see the brakes.

I think for 5th gen civic you could probably use the later gen integra units and bolt em on. I wanted to try and find the civic ex setup, but like Davis said, it's gettin real hard to find them. If i could have found a set of ex layin around i would never have gone through all the trouble of even doin this half-assed swap lol.

88-89 EX got the Si engine with DX/Si front brakes and I *think* rear drums. 90-91 got the Si engine and Integra disc brakes all around.

There was no EX in 88-89. And the 90-91's had rear drums.

To the OP, very clever

Goto www.honda-tech.com and search the Civic/CRX forum for rear discs. You find it there.

FYI: 90-93 Integra. Same as CRX rear brakes.

this guy is right, which is why you dont use the stock EX prop valve, cause they still had rear drum. and all u have to do to get GREAT brakes is upgrade front pads/rotors, stainless lines, rear disk, teg prop valve and teg master cyl/booster. there, u have sick *** brakes.

but i LOVE this mod to use the DA front calipers, i think ill be doing this on my beater EF. does it clear a 13'' wheel still??
