2 Door to 4 Door Disk Conversion

[AutoH22Accord]

Hey Everyone,
I'm new to this forum and have a question about doing the rear disk conversion. I've been reading different threads in this forum and I can't find anything really regarding this question. So here it is. I have a 90 accord 2 door and I have found some 90-93 4 doors in junk yards with rear disks. Can I take the take the rear disks (and everything that goes with them) from a 4 door and put it on my 2 door? I don't know if all the parts are the same length. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Yup sure can.

The only significant difference between coupes and sedans is the number of doors. (ok the suspension is a little lower on coupes, but you'd never know it).

Okay, So I know this was talked about in other threads, i just don't remember where it was. But, if I do the disk conversion then I have to take the suspension that goes with the disk setup or I can use mine right now, so I don't have to switch the springs and shocks over?

You'll need the rear knuckles. The shocks and springs will stay.

Cool, thanks Custom and Deev.

longer floor and roof too

As mentioned just take the complete rear arms. That would be easier since all you need to do is drop it and bolt the other unit on. You will be able to use the EX sway bar in the back if you do that. You also need an integra 40/40 prop valve for the brakes to function properly from what I have read.

Quesiton about this.. The 40/40 prop valve, can it be obtained from an accord with rear disc? Why the integra one? (informational purpose only, not disagreeing or anything, trying to get more info for when i do my swap)

[deevergote]

The Accord doesn't have one. If you don't use the valve, you'd need to swap over the brake booster and ABS components.

Nope, those dimensions are the same. All CB7s have same wheelbase.

then the coupe has longer doors

Yes, yes it does. That's why it's a coupe.


However, the length of the roof, floor, doors, etc... have NOTHING to do with the brakes. If it's not related to the doors, side glass, body panels, seats, and a few interior pieces, it's identical (or at least interchangeable) between the 2 door and 4 door.

then why when I tried to use a headliner from a sedan on my 90 EX did it stick out into the rear window about an inch or so? And why were the side skirts from a sedan about 1.5 inches or so too long?

Anyways I know it's not relative to the brakes, just pointing out something else..... It was late and I was being a smartass..... sorry
edit: but I did want to point it out because it's not as obvious a difference as a lot of other things, and I would hate for someone to pay for things that didn't fit like I ended up doing

Do you have a pic of this valve? Im hoping to pick one up before i do the swap so i dont forget.
