    Finished my rear brake swap and made a how-to page.. How does is look?? http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill.../Disc2Drum.htm

    Also I've rolled the fender up as far as I can but it still rubs any ideas??.. Machining the back of the rims is out.. Camber adjustment would have to be +5 degrees.. Bad for tires..

    Man whenever you get the chance try DOT 4 spec fluid. And if your Master Cylinder fails, get a 7/8" or best the 15/16" Master Cylidners off the 92-95 Civic Sedans. That's if your stuff ever fails or leaks...will make for an extremely tight set of brakes! The sizes are stamped on the left side of the cylinder long shaft...must use the mastching booster.

    Sweet Civic man!

    Are those new parts? The trailing are and cables...look entirely new.

    Those trailing arms aren't new. Pressure washed them and put the brembo rotors on so they just look new. Thanks for the advice on the master cylinder... No leaks yet...
