4 wheel disc conversion ?
 
Does anybody know if the brakebooster and master cyl. have to be changed if you bolt 99 civic si rear disc set on a 96 civic ex with drum brakes. I've heard both yes and no, but nobody has any details on their answers.

Here's the deal, you don't HAVE to change the bosster/cylinder, but your pedal will be kinda low. But this is only true for the EX...any other model and you HAVE TO do it or it's unsafe.

cool thanx for info. I got a good deal at a local junk yard on everything off the rear of a wrecked si . the whole front clip of the car was already gone, maybe i can find a booster and cyl at another junk yard.

Don't forget the proportioning valve, you will definatly need a proportioning valve.

You should change it...

It really isn't safe having a low pedal...
