thats called a CL. i know the suspension between the 6gs and 2g tl's/cl's all fits, so idk, id think it would work, but idk for sure.

Yeah, shocks and springs fit, but I don't think brake system will work on 4 cyl, but will work on 6cyl accord.

why not just get stuff from a junkyard? i went & found some rear spindles off a 2G coupe this past thurs. ill be going back this thurs to find the front, since i forgot my 36mm socket for the axle nut. plus, i figure pulling it myself will give me a better idea on what im doing for the swap. i did order the parking brake cables from the dealer (just wasnt too sure about using the old ones from the junkyard). now i just gotta find some wheels that i want, lol. im kicking around the idea of a set of RSX wheels, but they are only 16's, so that kinda holding me back.

ok, i keep reading through this to make sure im not forgetting anything. but i read that the original poster swapped out the proportioning valve. did it make a difference? was it required to make it brake correctly? and you did not have to swap out the master cylinder right?

and as for the proportioning valve, where is it located? thanks.

I didn't swap out the proportioning valve. I said I would, and it's located on the driver's side frame rail. Just follow the brake lines out of the master cyl. It would be beneficial but swap it out, but it's not necessary. I have a 40/40 in my tool box waiting to go in when I redo the brake lines.
