civic rar disc breaks

[f22civic]

Will 1990 acura legend rear disc breakes fit on a 95 civic?

[ShagginJet]

Not that i know.... 91-93 integra's only. But that's for a 88-91 civic, not sure about a 95.

[pdiggitydogg]

you'll want ones off a 94+ integra, del sol, or 92-00 civic
the DA 'teg arms dont exactly fit perfectly and the damn bushings are different sizes (trust me...Im dealing w/ that issue as we speak...)

[HondaGUY2005]

yea, you want the 94+ teg rear discs...i called a chop shop, and they said 200 for both sides...good deal, very worthy of that price, bang fer buck fer sure.

[pdiggitydogg]

i got mine for $150 from some shop in TN...they royally screwed up and sent me the DA arms...but at least theyre swapping w/ me for the right ones

[nonovurbizniz]

I used 93 teg rear trailing arms for my swap onto my 93 civic ex...

they worked fine no differences whatsoever... used the ebrake cables AND brake lines that came with the RTA's.

The lower control arm of the teg had bigger bushings for the shock mount... and a mounting hole for a rear sway bar... that's the only difference I encountered...

Also today I found out that 97+ prelude front calipers bolt onto my stock hubs... it will take some work to get them on and working but it's gunna happen soon enough now that I know they "fit".

[pdiggitydogg]

Actually they are different.
Hubs are the same and so are the mounting points (duh)...but many people find out that the toe (i think it was toe...something anyway) can never really be fixed, even after alignment.

Plus the main TA bushings are larger on DA arms...by 0.5" circumference.

Now, if the bushings are in good shape on the arms that you pull, thats not important. However, if you think they need replacing good luck getting a good bushing for a fix. Mugen does not make them for DA's, Honda/Acura only sells full arms (so no bushing alone), and dont even think that poly bushings will be alright (because they do not allow for proper arm travel). At that point you've got to make your own from melted rubber...and I doubt it will be very good as a long term thing. Another option is to buy the mugen ones for EF's and then get a ring made so the bushing fits tightly...

[nonovurbizniz]

that bit about the alignment is B.S...

I've had my car aligned... it's all fine.

I was told the same thing and thought it may be true because one side was way out... but it got set back to proper position with NO problem...

After I get the last few bushings I have to do in I will align it myself on my buddies machine... then I'll set it to dead 0 or as close as I can get to it... and I'll take note of how much adjustment is left in it.

but as of now my car is perfectly aligned with the 93 RTA's on my car...

I've heard also that there are alignment issues when using the FRONT of a da teg too... but I'm beginning to doubt that as well...

[pdiggitydogg]

Cool, good to find another dead rumor.

How are your ta bushings, by the way? (Condition, I mean)

[nonovurbizniz]

The stock one's are shot... the mugen's are still sitting in the trunk...

I think I'll get to them by next weekend at the latest...

I have those and the rear upper shock mount bushings, as well as the front lower shock mount bushings left from the ES master kit to do...

Then I'm almost ahead of the game... I gotta drop my WHOLE exhaust this weekend to paint the header and the muffler... and to get rid of a leak I've had since I installed it...

[pdiggitydogg]

hmm..King Motorsports told me that mugen didnt make DA TA bushings.
Are they specifically for DA's or something else? Whats the part # out of curiousity?

[nonovurbizniz]

I just ordered them for my chassis (92-95 civic)...

i haven't done them yet so maybe they won't fit... but they look like they will.

[pdiggitydogg]

If youve got da arms they wont fit...they'll slide right through
ef/eg/dc/ek all use 10" circumference bushings
da is the only one that uses 10.5" circumference that I know of.

[nonovurbizniz]

next time I get it in the air I'll measure them... thanks for the heads up.
