Actually read through the FAQ and tell me where it says "YOU NEED TO SWAP BRAKE LINES." I read through 7 pages before I gave up on getting a definitive answer.

Well I'll say it here. Once and for all.
IF YOU SWAP FROM DISKS TO DRUMS, YOU HAVE TO GET DISK REAR BRAKE LINES.
The way the lines mount to the brakes are completely different and you can't use the old ones.
EDIT: As far as the weight thing. Agian, for the third thread you've posted in I'll correct you agian. I had both whole rear assemblies out this past week, and if they don't weigh the same, it's pretty damn close. Since the rear disks are pretty much the exact same size as the drums, they don't really add rotational mass either.

w00t. Anything for you guy!
The disks use a banjo type bolt like on the fronts, and the drums are COMPLETELY different. I even tried to scheme up a way to reuse the rear lines just in the name of ingenuity....couldn't do it.

this is the third time in a matter of days that I have seen you write....it adds weight on disc brake conversions! Shut the hell or prove it jackass...
edit: are all of your posts "it adds weight" I think you are right, maybe I should have a car without any brakes so I can save weight!!!!!!

I would go with SS lines if you have to upgrade anyway. I used teg rear lines, but the 99-00 SI rear lines will work as well.

Anywhere from 150 dollars on up.

BTW:
Engine swaps, turbo kits, etc. - they all add weight, so I guess those are a dumb idea too, eh?

very dumb not sure why the hell i put in that heavy *** turbo ls 
side note- if anyone has an integra, i'll give them my super-light rear drum setup (~65.3 lbs) for their heavy-*** rear disc setup (~64.7 lbs)
another side note- i simply pulled those weights out of my ***, so don't use my words as a reference, but when i do this swapover (very soon), i'll be sure to weigh everything to end this issue

Re: (ShadyEH2)
Some good info here and some realllllly bad info too. I don't have exact weights but the only thing really different is from the hub out, the rest is pretty much identical from the hub back through the trailing arm. I would guess that a rotor and a drum are about the same weight. I would also gues that there is not much weight difference between a caliper and pads vs the drum components and shoes.
They only thing that adds weight is your skull with a foot in its mouth.
As for brake lines, technically you can use the lines from the 94+ Integra and it will bolt up fine (or use Si from what I've heard). I didn't have any 94+ Integras at any of the salvage yards near me so I tried using earlier models before biting the bullet and getting some Goodridge SS lines which are superb
89 Integra lines had the right fittings but were too short. 91 Integra lines had the right fittings but were a bit long and the brakcets on the lines didn't match up with the civics. I knew in my heart they wouldn't work but I tried anyhow for the hell of it. The 91's would have actually worked with some zip ties but I don't like doing ghetto rigging like that.
I did however use the e-brake cables from the 89 Integra with some fabricating to the brackets (I took the brackets off of the civics drum ebrake cable and put them on the new cables). They were a bit long but I just tucked the slack up above the gas tank. They work perfectly If you have access to the correct cables, I would use them for simplicity reasons but really anything that reaches the discs and is not too short will work

Re: 94 integra LS rear disc, fit EG? (siamturbo)
I have a 93 Civic 4 door with Integra LS rear disc and the car stops pretty cool not a big difference. But to really feel the difference put a Integra master cylinder.

Re: (Ricey McRicerton)
about the weight issue: when i did my conversion, the disc assembly did feel heavier, but i have no proof to back that up. if anyone has a disc assembly laying around, please weigh it. i have the stock civic drum set up in my garage i can weigh, i don't have a digital scale, so it wouldn't be that accurate, but at least we can get some kind of quanified idea.
edit: shady, i didn't read that part about your plans on weighing it! let us know when you do and what you find out! i'll try to weigh my drums for comparison as well.
