    I'll look into that booster. I've been thinking of using the one from a 2wd automatic wagon, it's a good bit bigger. Seems like when I looked at the Integra one the mounting studs for the MC ears were clocked the wrong way...?

    IDK if it is or not I just used the DA master also. Has a bigger res. The only thing was it crammed my engine bay a little more and was a pain to fit in there with the motor still in there!

    mmm, I just bought a brand new 15/16" EX master. We did put the booster/MC combo off my red DA donor car on a friend's hatch along with the rear discs- he likes it.

    I loved it it stops on a dime infact that is wat is goin back on the crx when finished! plus there are tons of upgrades for the DA brake system.

    Trying on some black slips

    I kinda like 'em, but just got the pair. Pretty much just traded for them 'cause the sedan needs some new rubber.

    Pretty new disc brakes :D

    you should have been a Honda engineer back in 1988 when these wagons came out..

    and made them just like yours, basically perfect :shock:

    Thanks, guys.

    Put some new NGK wires on. UGH, can I get black ones :wink:

    The rear disc swap meant I had to get to the e-brake cables, which meant I had to remove the center console, which meant I had to remove the armrest, which meant removing the seats :lol: May as well vacuum it out!

    Looking good Bam. The black slips would be nice.

    I towed the camper today for the first time since all the brake upgrades, and :D :D :D :D

    It STOPS. Before it was just a little iffy.

    Put all the interior/headliner/mirror/visors back in tonight. I hope the windshield nightmare is over :evil:

    Took all of my everyday junk out of the wag to load up some tires.

    219.jpg

    Big tire swap in the morning- Take the 2 off the slips, put them and 2 new ones on the meshies for the sedan, put 2 new ones on the bamwagon, take the old 2 and put them on the trailer...

    220.jpg

    I didn't realize how nice those meshies were until I started cleaning them!

    Here's one from my brake-testing run yesterday. I need to adjust the rears up about an inch I think..

    Today I decided to address a bunch of little things that have been bugging me. After taking my Christmas present hatch struts back and ordering replacements, I...
    replaced the instrument 'hood'
    replaced some cluster bulbs
    bulbs in the hazard flasher button and AC switch and climate control panel
    rewired the front speakers
    tried another head unit-then changed it back :oops:
    swapped out the trim piece around the lighter plug
    changed the fan speed switch
    soldered on a new plug/leads for the IAT sensor.
    started work on some taillight gasket replacements

    Plus did some similar stuff to the sedan. It's the little things that make your 20 year old civic a great car and not some old beater :D
  • That wagocamper is sweet . The camper and the wagon I want :o . Oh well can't always get what I want :( .
