Never seen a link for it, but it may be up on http://hybrid.honda-perf.org for the rear disk brake.


for the front.

seperate the rubber brake lines from the hard lines, and unbolt the brake line holders from the shocks.

remove the calipres. two bolts with big heads on the back. easy to find.

remove the axle nut. 32 mm just need a good torque arm.
helps to have the wheel on the ground when you do this.

if not use the brakes, if the disc starts spinning, pump the brakes real quick, and try to break the bolt again. you gotta unstake it first before anything. (make the dent not a dent)

remove the cotter pins from the very bottom ball joint (found right behind the disc's at the very bottom.

remove the cotter pins from the streering arm connected to the whole knuckle assembly. i used a flat rubber mallet to kock the bolt. popped right out no problems.

remove the cotter pin from the ball joint where the knuckle connects to the a arm.

the ball joints by the a arm and the very bottom are a ***** to seperate.. i'd get a ball joint seperator, but i've done it by hammering it a little bit, and prying them apart using a wrecking bar. it's a ***** but it's possible. just don't hit it too hard and mushroom the bolt. it's a ***** replacing those ball joints.

i'd work on the bottom ball joint first. once you get that out. remove the axle from the hub. just turn the hub assembly and it should come right out.

then remove the upper a arm ball joint and the knuckle it's sort of a ***** too, just keep tryin' to pry it apart and hammer it a little and gently.

then just put the integra stuff on, and it all bolts up.

to replace the lca's. follow the lca's to where it bolts to the chassis, and just swap them. real easy. do this when you have the whole knuckle and stuff off.

i'll do the rear one later. i don't remember all the names for the parts you gotta remove, but it's cake to do also.

if i was doing it i'd remove both engine from both cars.

from the integra i'd remove the steering rack and all. i think the integra has a front lower tie bar or subframe bar or something stock. but if you are willing to you can swap the whole engine craddle from the integra over to the civic. i've never done it, but it all bolts right up to the civic. you'll get front sway bar and all that ****. if i remember correctly.

i've never done it, just seen it done, and so forth.

seems like a real *****, but worth it i think.
