Rear disk brakes

[russiankid]

I am curious, how many people on here have them? I checked my setup today and 20k miles later after a complete overhaul, it still looks fresh. :beer:

[turabaka]

I do, and I'm loving them.

[russiankid]

Same here. Even though I have the LX MC and prop valve, they make the car stop faster.

[Civic Accord Honda]

im going to get some as soon as i find a integra at the junkyard :D

i had them for a lil bit over 2 years....im happy...i should of rebuilt the calipers tho....When I swapped mine in 2 years ago, I got new lines all around, rotors, pads, rebuilt the calipers, new bushing in the spindle, brake fluid. Rebuilt one of the fronts too.


can u put discs from an integra on the accordI don't think you can.

Thanks. Its definitely worth the work. They're getting harder to find. I know I had the swap laying round for 3 years under the shelf when my brother snapped it from an SE-i.

Mine's had them for almost 20 years ;)
Well aren't you lucky!:sadwave:

[ZackieDarko]

i have an 85% complete swap waiting to go on

[knifemind]

no, but cah has a civic not a 3g so don't be misled.

[MessyHonda]

[A18A]

i got some too, i also installed twin piston front calipers, much much much better than what i had before.

[russiankid]

So now many people then.

[LX-incredible]

I have a set installed and a few spares, of course.

[russiankid]

I had some tires mounted on last night and one of the weights fell off. So instead of taking the wheel off and bringing it over I brought the car over. The guy took the wheel off(rear wheel) and stared at it with a "wtf" look on his face. Made me feel good for some reason.

[Tdurr]

[ZackieDarko]

Or in your shed waiting to go on?


this is 3geez ....so i would say YES :-p

[Tomisimo]

Had mine on for 23 years now.. original setup. But rear calipers needs to be changed. Lost my E-Brake..

[Rendon LX-i]

I have a set installed and a few spares, of course.

You do....hook it up...lol

Ive been looking around.....i just keep telling myself that i rather get this or this before a rear disk...i want to get this bad now thou....

[Bluntman]

Ok is it only an SE-i that will work on a 88 LX-i? I found a 89 Acura and 87 integra that I believe looked similar to my lower arm and and knuckle set up on my 88 lxi. Please clarify for me what year cars I am looking for?
And do I just need the whole hub assembly with calipers etc., or do I pull the trailing arm and knuckle with the brake assemlbly connected? And from what I read I need to pull the e brake cables and booster setup. Can some write me a list of cars to look for at the JY and parts to yank. It would help me out.You guys are always helpful thanks.

[turabaka]

89 Accord Se-i only to my knowledge. Some other rotor and caliper combos fit, but you still need the hub and knuckle from the Se-i. If you find one just nab everything for the rear brakes off of it. Including the e-brake cables because they're different.

And booster set up? So I guess SEi only? This guy at the JY was getting out of an SEi as I was leaving:banghead: I go every week to see what they have.

yeah the master cylinder and prop valve are different as well.

[russiankid]

Master cylinder is the same between the 88-89 LX-i and the SE-i.

my bad. I wasn't paying attention that he was an lx-i.

[russiankid]

I was just saying, lol.

[Bluntman]

Great thanks. And a few weeks ago I was pulling switches and plugs out of a car at the JY, and I thought "how odd it has leather interior". Well it was probably an SEi, but it is gone now. This was before I was researching what to look for.

[A18A]

i was wondering how well a master cylinder & prop valve from a car with rear drums would work on a car with disks? im trynna get rid of my ghey alb but my only spare prop valve & m/c for the rear disks have gone walk-abouts. i don't really want my rear wheels locking up under normal braking if that's what the standard prop valve is gonna do
