i plan on making my 89 civic hatch into a RT4WD and i was wondering for the rear brakes if you can use the integra rear spindles for the rear disk conversion with the RT4WD rear end.

    i swapped 4wd civic drivetrain into my crx and i used integra rear breaks its kinda a PITA and i will never have an e-break cuz of how the wagon trailing arm is so bulky i had to cut some of the caliper to make it fit. i know its tuff to tell but in the first pic if u look just to the upper right of the hub u can see where mike and i cut off the chunk of integra spindle that the caliper bolts go through we lined it up and mike welded it to the wagon spindle. welding cast is tuff good thing mike can weld anything.

    Simply put.......No. you cant use the spindles.

    But if using the spindles is the route you want to go with, you have to get VERY creative. I wouldnt suggest it because its a pain in the ass/ almost impossible to do it that way. and im sure your going to hit a dead end.

    with a smaller less bulky crx trailing arm i might have been able to have an ebreak... heres the link to his 4wd eg project

    theres an easier way to get a caliper to bolt up.

    Turbo teg, look into a longer acura's e brake cables. you can run ebrake on your rex.

    Do the teg and EG 4wd JDM cars have discs or drums ?

    im pretty sure they have disks. at least all USDM Tegs have disks (they are all 2WD though)
