that is what you guys would need. So right click that and save it for later. I got my setup for 250 picked up. with everything including hawk hps brake pads. Still haven't had time to install though.

How easy was the installation c orndoff?

That’s eerie I got mine picked up for 250 with newish Hawk HPS in them also. It took me about an hour and a half, with a buddy helping hold stuff. Also mine came with ep3 lower control arms. Then I bled all four lines. The rear discs have a way better pedal feel, not mushy like drums, and they grab allot better. Right now i am running the stock proportioning valve (non-abs LX) and they stop great, i have been pushing them allot the past two days. Soon I am going to get wilwood adjustable proportioning valve so I can get every last bit of braking power out of them.

you can make the last bracket work. bolt it in and bend it to where you need it.

You should keep the lower arms on and just swap the whole thing it makes things way easyer.

ABS has nothing to do with the proportioning valve they are completly different things. You still need to change the proportioning valve to get the most out of it, ABS won’t correct it. The only thing is you can just swap a 02-05 Si PV in, where non-abs cars have to get custom ones since honda only made the Si with ABS.

Civic EX ABS proportioning valve part number
46470-S5T-E01

Civic SI ABS proportioning valve part number
46210-S5A-812

Civic DX/LX NON-ABS proportioning valve part number
46210-S5A-912

It is the same but ABS has to hook up ABS wheel Sensors in the back. And people with ABS can run a Civic Si proportioning valve. Non-ABS can't run a Civic Si proportioning valve.
