hey i have a 97 ex b16a swap and now i am doin a rear disc conversion.... i have searched and read a lot of the post on the parts list and everything but still a little unsure on a few thnigs. i got the arms and everything complete with the e brake cables from a 95 gsr... and i don't have abs so i don't need to worry about the wiring right?.. 2nd the e brake cables... can i use the ones that came on them from the gsr or do i need to get the 99 si cables? the bushing that always cracks at the one end with the rod thing through it that pretty much holds most of the arm... just order ones for a gsr or can i just buy any for a civic and press the old one out and new in? ,... thanks a ton !

1) You can just remove any ABS components from the trailing arms.

2) If the cables came from a 4dr integra, you'll be just fine. I have yet to confirm the 2dr cables, they MIGHT come up short.

3) The bushing you are referring to are called trailing arm bushings. They can be found at either Honda or Acura, they are the same part #: 52385-SR3-000, about $63 each.

brake lines should be fine and 2dr e-brake cables will not work from what I've read. I also have read that the LCA's are a different length and you need to reuse the civic LCA's.

if you are running ex front brakes, get rotors for a civic ex front.
if you are running gsr rear disk brakes. get rotors for the rear of an integra
