Front Brake Conversion
I need help I got a 90 dx civic hatch and want to know what I can do if anything to run a bigger brake system in the front. Is there a kit or run some integra stuff or whatever. Let me know something.

Re: Front Brake Conversion
Alright your title says front but you say back in your post. Which do you mean? For the rear do a disc brake swap out of a integra. Front i'm unsure of.

Re: Front Brake Conversion
you can use the front and rear brakes off a 90-93 integra, but you will also have to use the master cylinder, which means your brake lines to the cylinder will have to be re-bent.

Re: Front Brake Conversion
it's really opinion, some say cross drilled tend to crack, i know if you work them really hard they will start to warp sooner than none cross drilled, but none cross drilled will fade faster when working them hard.
it's all application, if you autocross i say go with crossdrilled slotted
street use, slotted or brembo blanks
either way you go
go with a good pad
do a search on honda-tech.com, that will give you some really good answers

Get a 90-93 NON ABS 4040 Proportional valve. They go for about 40-50 bucks on here, or go to the junkyard and put one in your tool box.
