looking to swap out my tiny brakes for something a little nicer. Have the spindles, rotors, pads, calipers, lines, rear complete trailing arms, lcas, rotors pads calipers. also have swap bar and sub frame. 15" ITR rims. all from a 2000 ITR

What else do I need?

need a bigger Master cylinder I know not sure from what.

does this stuff even fit into my 91 Civic?

should I bother doing this ITR converstion?

any advice links and other good stuff welcome

Thanks Again guys

wow, this is stuff I wouldn't mind having on my winter beater.

I've seen these parts work on EFs before... I mean I've seen EFs before with the 5 lug conversion. So somehow it'll fit... how I don't know.

well if there is a will there is a way

I think you should see if an ITR brake booster would fit then you could use the ITR master. Otherwise why not the 15/16 cylinder from the 91 Civic LX sedan, it fits the stock booster. I have ITR rear controls arms on my car attached to 91 integra trailing arms so that part should bolt up no problem. As for the front i have no concrete knowledge.

i saw a ef hatchback on honda-tech with itr front and it had massive caster probs.

wheels sat at the back of the wheelwells

i think yu need the itr hubs pressed into da knuckles

^ yes you do, its almost exactly like putting the suspension on a DA. Its a huge PITA getting the fronts to work.. It completely throws off suspension geometry also. You are better off selling your ITR suspension and picking up some 90-93 integra assemblies. Then keep the extra cash u made off the R suspension and buy something usefull.

Blue Dream

90 - 93 integra assembly will do the same thing to the geometry as R suspension.


you need either the 4dr EX <--- super rare, or JDM crx/civic

blue dream is right, I looked it up

imported_Redz81

I heard one guy on honda tech say he has 90-93 teg stuff and his is fine. will the rears work? can I change or modify anything to fix the geometry?

that's ONE guy... everyone else KNOWS that DA spindles are nearly an inch longer than Civic ones, so your upper control arm ends up pointing upwards

so what kind of brake upgrade options are there for efs. some rotor sizes would be nice. want rear disc too.

Thanks for letting my know about this spindle thing saved me some money buying the stuff. I love you guys.

Brett

In the front i don't think anything is necessary. This is my setup power slot rotors all around (90 Integra rear discs), stock calipers, and ebc green brake pads, 15/16 master cylinder on stock booster with 50/50 propotioning valve. My car stops quick over and over again with little if no fad in the pedal. You have to keep in mind the car only weighs 2100-2300 pounds. How much stopping force do you really need?

you can get the EX spindles and then use Prelude VTEC rotors redrilled for 4x100 and you can use Accord wagon/Integra Type R calipers and you'll have massive brakes.

What is the 50/50 proportioning valve out of.

heard something about the civic on has 30/30 stamped on the proportioning valve. and the teg one has 40/40 stamped on it.

aslo when you say ex spindles what car is that? 91 civic ex? 4dr?

Brett

Im sure mine is a 50/50 i could be a 40/40 though although that makes no sense to me where does the other 20% go? I got it out of a 91 integra with disc brakes. Not sure what model though.
