Default Front Brake Swap for EF Civic DX

I am getting ready to do a front brake upgrade on my hatch, and I need to know something.
Can i use my DX steering knuckles, or do I need to get Si or EX steering knuckles from a 90-91?
B/C if I can use mine I can get all knew parts and do the swap w/o going to the junkyard for about $200.

Please let me know, and if you have any of the parts I need.
Thanx in advance
ZACH

I have an '89 with GSR brakes up front. I didnt install the fronts, so I don't have your answer, but maybe you can take a look at it and maybe you can tell?
