I was just wondering if there was a difference in the brakes on a si hatch vs a dx hatch. I was thinking about swapping out the calipers on my dx because I have a parts car si. but I don't know if it will make much if any difference.

Depends on the year... but in most cases, they're all the same.

the si that I have is a 89 and the dx in a 91

Your brakes should be the same on both cars... but the 90-91 si came with rear disk brakes.
