im pretty sure you need the integra e brake cable.
and unless your civic is an ex or si youll need the proportioning valve from the integra too

You need the Integra ebrake cable. You only need a prop valve if you're doing the front and rear. It will have to be from a non ABS Civic, Del Sol, or Integra that is rear disc brakes. A 15/16 master cylinder from a 91 Civic EX is recommended but not necessary. Upgrading the brake booster is never necessary and there is no actual benefit from doing so.
That about covers it.

No the DA prop valve bracket doesn't bolt up to the Civic. Like I said, get a 94+ Integra RS, 92-95 Civic EX or Del Sol (w/rear disc) prop valve.

You can swap on the civic bracket.
