rear disk brakes conversion
 

what cars can I get rear disk brakes from to work on a 95 civic ex? and what all would I need to get for this conversion, very important need to know!!! thanks!

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

any civic or integra's from 92-00 rear disk barkes will work. You need the rear disks with all the arms and cables for the e-brake. 98ctr

thanks! will an accord brake kit work?

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

the civic's with rear disc had ABS so you will need to source a 4040 proportioning valve.

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

you dont need ALL the arms. Just the MAIN trailing arm is all you need w/ the disc brake assembly attached. You will also need ebrake cables from a car w/ rear disks. the prop valve is also something you should look into, try with out. but it's really just he said she said as to if it's really needed. also get the brake lines from a rear disk car.

Did any 92-95 cars come w/ rear disks?

no. accord rear disk will NOT work.

I just won a set on ebay for $162, it has the arms, cables, and lines, no prop valves, it also has abs, do I have to use the abs? or can the conversion be easily done without the abs? it seems to me the kit is completed except for the proportion valve, but do really need that? all want is rear disk brakes that works, I dont need ABS, shouldn't it be possible just to install the parts, hook up the lines, bleed the system, and it ready to go? do I need a different master cylinder? give me as much info you can, thanks!

4040 and MC will just give u better use of those brakes. It will work w/o them but works better w/ them. thats a good deal. how much is shipping? (Those suckers are HEAVY)

thank me later.

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

the shipping is about $60, good deal looks good also... whats the mc master cylinder? is that all I need to get them to work? no additional lines, cant I use the stock MC? THANKS AGAIN!

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

the 88-89 Si and all CRX w/ rear drums use a 13/16" master cyl. the 90-91 Si's use a 7/8" it's a direct replacement.

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

90-91 Civic EX uses a 15/16" MC....and so do i ;D

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

I have a 95 ex so I guess I keep my original cylinder correct?

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

I pulled my rear disc/trailing arms off a 1990 Integra RS... my MC is a 7/8" for 1995 Civic EX w/ABS. all works great! ebrake cables i bought new from rockauto.com for like 65 bucks or something.

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

the 1/16" is probably for the larger piston bores on the front's ?

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

stoopid questoins but what do you guys mean by MC? is that Master Cylinder? oh and i got rear disk brakes from a 92 GSR. at first i didnt have the prop vavle but i then went to the junk yard and punked one from a 91 teg. feels better but the pedal tends to sink in from time to time. could it be my Booster?

would a MC from a CRX SI be a better choise than taht of a dx civic ? is it a direct bolt on and are the bolt patterns the same?

i notice the Brake booster and MC from the tegs are totally different?

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

integra sized brakes at all corners ;D

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

if your car did not have abs to begin with, how would you install it, dont you need some electric control for abs? I'm researching but cant find anything on that, abs sensors, abs controller, and such...

Re:rear disk brakes conversion
 

you just dont install the abs. the only part of the actual brakes that is abs is around the back of the hub there is a ring w/ teeth on it. the hole abs thing is on seperate parts in the engine bay.
