Default Integra front knuckle upgrade

Once I start working again, I plan on ugrading the entire brake system with 91 teg brakes, pro-valve, MC, front & rear disc , everything. Just wondering if anyone else venture into this area, if so, let me know what problems you ran into. I know I should be ok with the rear just the front knuckle is what im curious about, and how it would change my ability to align properly.

well i know a dude who has a B16 swapped CRX SI and he did the front swap with the booster and all that. he hasnt got to the back yet. but he said the worst problem he ran into was gettin g the booster in the car. since he had the B16 in there it made it a tight fit.

he changed the bosster too,why? do you have to change the booster too? Im gonna find out anyways, im just trying to figure it out the easy way. When I start working again, im gonna put everthing in, cause I wanna check the alignment before and then align it right after.

i think he changed it just cause he had it to change...plus it supports the bigger front brakes and then supports the rear disc as well. it holds more fluid that way

screw the teg m/c and booster. use your stock booster with a 90-91 ex sedan 15/16 mc. it bolts to the stock booster and the lines are all in the right places, some teg m/c's have the lines in different locations than the stock hard lines. rear discs are more bling than anything, honestly they arent worth it.

I got the teg brake booster today, since you turn on that light bulb in my head last night $20 compared to like $500 the dealer ship sells it for.

onlything the teg MC and booster do is make it so you dont push as hard, does more work for less. prop valve does most of the fluid proprtioning(i know i didnt spell that right!)

Yeah, but if im gonna do the pro-valve, front and rear calipers might as well use the mc and booster from the same car, its like what an extra 15mins.
