ive found some deals on GSR rear disc swaps and i want to put them on my 97 Civic adn was wondering what exactly is needed such as bb/mc/pv/brake lines/control arms/trailing arms/etc. any help will be much appreciated...thanks!!!

assuming you getting the entire trailing arm assy, it's just bolt on into your existing trailing arm with drum

you need to reroute e-brake cables and perform alignment after replacement

mc/bb/prop valve is optional but i would suggest you do it for better braking response

when you change the rear trailling arm

Few known problems on EK:

1) The rear LCA bolt (lower bushing) is oftently jammmed in the bushing, mean 80% of the time.

2)The two rear big bolt of the trailling, the inside nut are turning in the car.
60% of the time.




the secret of those problem, heat it, heat it with a torch....

I'm having the exact problem of removing those right now. Can't seem to get those front trailing arm bolts and the LCA lower bolts loose.

begin with torch and then lots of wd40

and just an FYI, the GSR brakes are no different than the RS/LS/GS brakes.

all part numbers are the same except for the type r units.

ps - try penetrating fluid on those seized bolts and a good impact gun.

if your putting integra rear brakes on a ek you should get 99-00 SIR hand brake cables .. you can use integra but you will have to cut a new hole to run them

i am doing this swap on my 95civic

i was just thinking of changing the prop valve, and better brake fluid

how did yours go?

did you change your mc with a
integra master cylinder (94-00)
& an
integra 90-93 40/40 prop valve ?
