prop valve will only affect things under really heavy braking (ie you could lock up the rears).

I have a full conversion in my garage, but I imagine the cost of shipping to the US would be prohibitive.

You're better off with a set of 99-00 Si rear disc brakes just because they come with the Si e-brake cables which are a perfect fit for your coupe.

make sure to get a prop vavle, i've done the rear disc conversion for my ej8 and during hard braking my brakes locked up. Its fine to run the conversion with out the prop vavle but its recommend to upgrade to a 40/40 prop vavle

I think it is better to find Si rear disc brakes to save you the hassle & money of finding the e-brake cables.

It's not like it's that hard to find e-brake cables and a 4040 prop valve. You can always go to the stealership....
