99 EX Drum brake question
I know there’s a good chance that this question has been asked before but every time I try to search I get~
"The search server is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."
Its been like that all day; but anyways,
I was thinking about converting my rear drums to disk brakes. I was going to go to a local junk yard and find some off of an Acura. If someone could instruct me on what all I need to take besides the rotors and calipers off the Acura/and some pointers on installing them on my car, that would be great.
(Or send me a link to a past post if the search is working for you)
Thx a lot.

You don't need the trailing arms, but most people just do it becuase its generally easier to just swap the whole thing. But I know from experience that the trailing arms are interchangeable, as the Teg ones that I got were bent, so I just used the spindles etc from the Teg and the trailing arm from my car.

Re: 99 EX Drum brake question (EJ8 Jim)
grab a proportioning valve of a 99-00 si, youll need this or the brakes wont work right. Its easiest to just grab the whole trailing arm assemble and swap it all, gsr
e-brake cables work but youll have to makeshift a way to bolt em down. your best bet if you just want rear disc is try to find it off an SI. it'll make it a lil easier, its def worth the swap though
