integra disc brakes, sway bar questions

By eg-guy
- Thu Nov 03, 2011 8:54 pm #279999 tomarrow im picking up 2000 integra rear disc brakes, ebrake cables, and sway bar.

what do i need to mount the sway bar on my eg?

will the es bushings for 92-95 civic fit the integra trailing arms?

do i need a prop valve?

is there anything i need to know about doing this conversion, or is the whole setup plug and play?

so i absolutely positively need the prop valve for the setup to work?

- Fri Nov 04, 2011 1:18 am #280014 i never used the prop valve. and mine worked fine. if you do decide the prop valve the one from a 92 SI will work since it has disc brakes but no abs the integra one wont fit from what it looks like.


and the 91 civic ex master cylinder will work to i think its 15/16?

but when i did the rear disc brake swap i never had to use the prop valve and my braking was fine. that is just from my experience with my brake swaps i did. but yes the those bushings will fit. as long its from 94+ integra or 92-00 civic.

only one question remains, the swaybar. will it bolt right up?

Why wouldn't it work? I used a prop valve from a 91 ls integra (90-97 use same prop valve and same booster/MC as long as they're non-sbs), didn't require any modification of the OEM lines.

Personally I'd use the 40/40.

- Fri Nov 04, 2011 5:54 pm #280097 Do you have aftermarket Rear Lca's or the integra Lca's with the holes to mount the Endlinks? As long as you have those, the Endlinks, the Subframe mounting brackets, bushings and all the bolts then you are good.

Let me know if I am wrong anyone?

before asking what prop valve works, figure out if the car has rear disc. if it does then it should work. if it doesn't then I wouldnt use it. and as far as i know, if a ex sedan has rear disc it has abs too, so prob wouldnt work.

if i remember right those (well the abs ones are atleast and like 99% Of those are never RS's you'd see in the salvage) they look like the octopus ones. where they are like all over the place and not like 2 up top and 2 on bottom ? if i had a pic you'd see what i mean.

but i think the 96-00 DX/ 99-Si would be suitable my friend did that swap and it ended up being the same prop valve. on his 96 dx



and yes the sway bar will bolt up with those integra brackets and Rear lower control arms.

- Fri Nov 04, 2011 11:59 pm #280163 I didnt use the 40/40 valve, but I have since gotten one. I will put it on when I start on the front brake upgrades. BTW, this one has a different bracket, although the valve looks the same. And it has security Torx (had to go to Harbor Freight...) to change the bracket.

FYI, I also got a 15/16" MC, which is evidently the perfect size for a front and rear disc car. But I got it off an Integra, and it would be sitting diagonally if I put it on my booster....so back to the salvage yard I go...

^^no shit shirlock holmes, the car im refering to at the junkyard has rear disc. It's a ex 4 door, do the math.

I picked everything up today and it included the rear lower control arms that have the swaybar mount, so ive got everything needed to do the swap, except the prop valve. so off to searching i go.

thanks everybody for the input
