Converting 1998 Civic ex with rear drums to 2000 Civic Si rear disk
What do I need for a rear disk brake conversion? I posted this under Acura Integra by accident!

Re: (riceburnerryan)
well for one, the weight. for two the prop valve. ever notice how your rear pads wear out after youve replaced the fronts about 7 times? ive owned both an ej8 with drums AND an em1 and my ej8 brakes just felt better.
spend some time in the road racing forum. a lot of the setups are just real good rotors/pads up front and drums in the rear.
you can always do the rear disc conversion for the bling factor.

Ok, thanks for everyones help on this I appreciate it, I know that the Si rear disk assembly wil work but will the rear brake assembly from an Integra work?
I also wanted to know if the I can just change out the front calipers from my Civic to front calipers from Integra without any major mods?
