i was at the junk yard today picking up some trunk light harness/housing.

i spotted an Integra with rear disk. i go to the front and check for abs lines an there was nothing (which from reading threads is just what i need)

so, tomorrow im planning on going to take what i need to get my rear disk conversion started, and since im a rookie i was wondering if there was anyone willing to help me out via text or phone call. just in case i need to double check my list while im there?

its not hard man just pull everything like the trailing arm and the e-brake lines and u should be good. oh and also you will need the brake lines because the drum brake lines do not fit to the disc brakes. i think the only tools you will need is a 12mm, 14mm, 17mm, and a 19mm and maybe a 10mm. got any ?'s shoot me a text or call 208-392-0323

THANKS A LOT REALLY APPRECIATE IT.
also i was thinking about taking the lower control arms along with the sway bar. it will all fit up in a 95civc ex right?

It will all bolt in. When are you doing the swap?

The LCAs will bolt right up, but if you have a 4-door EX, you shouldn't need them. I'm assuming you have a coupe though. You might consider getting a subframe brace kit before putting on the sway bar, just to be on the safe side. You'll probably be OK with an LS sway bar, but anything bigger will probably tear out your subframe, and there's a lot of unhappiness that goes along with that.

While you're at it, get the front brakes, control arms/sway bar unless you already have front discs and sway bar. Just make sure you have at least 14" wheels though.

exactly... but he forgot one thing.... saftey glasses lol theres alot of CRAP under the car that can fall into your eye... i found that out the hard way.. but yeah ive done this conversion and its pretty straight forward.

yea i already have the front disk and sway..
how important are the lca's on handling? because if i have to buy the subframe brace shouldnt i just get the aftermarket lca's along with sub brace and sway bar?

well im just mentioning the above because from memory i think subframe brace cost like 100+

well i guess what im really trying to ask is.. can i to stay with the stock integra lca's get a subframe brace and bigger sway bar and still get better handling or will i need to get aftermarket lca's for max performance. ...

i guess i should hold off on the sway bar and just do the rear disk till i get enough cash for the whole set-up for the sway bar (lca's, subframe brace, and ultra fat swaybar)


just an update.. i went back today and one of the trailing arms was gone!!
now i have to go look for more DC's

lol yea i know what you mean..

safety first!
