Re:hybrid brakes
thats what we are talking about.. if you use the integra knuckle or even the newer civic ones, it will throw the suspension geometery off, they are too tall. That is why everyone does the 90-91 EX upgrade, they have larger brakes, and will work correctly.
In your case, you might just want to stick with the DX/SI Knuckle swap.

Re:hybrid brakes
----!!!! that just threw my entire ------- swap off!!! i dont wanna go out and buy dx/si hubs for my HF. everything rested on that ------- brake swap. that really pisses me off now. well now it seems like im not gonna be going with the LS motor after all. its just to expensive for my budget right now. anyone know where i can get a full ZC swap for cheap now? and will ZC axles fit in the hf hubs? and if i dont get zc axles, what axles work with the ZC motor in a CRX? thanks guys

Re:hybrid brakes
Nope, ZC axles use integra axles as well.. So you are going to have to upgrade the knuckle's reguardless
Unless you put the ZC in, use the SI/DX tranny, and use the HF axles.. then you will be fine.
HF axles with HF hubs..
Hf axles can work with hf/dx/si tranny but not ZC

Re:hybrid brakes
Jeff, ,if you want I can do a write up for my 88Si for the rear disk brake swap that way we can have two different experiences just incase we encounter problems..
also, what parts are you using?? Im using the following,
90 CRX Si trailing arms, rotor, caliper, ebrake cables.
I also have the lower control arms which I might change to make shock changes easier.
