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

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.

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

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?

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...

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.
