Default Drum to disc on my Civic Hatchback?

I've already changed the rear suspension arms and basically converted my 91' Civic to all wheel disc. I'm having trouble with the e-brake cables... i was not aware that there were no Civic Hatchbacks that came with all wheel disc from the factory... so this is where i'm confused... do i look to an acura dealership to get e-brake cables from like a 92'-95' integra with all wheel disc... or am i in need to make some custom cables here? Oh and i got the rear discs off my wrecked 91' Crx Si... and those cables do not work so that's not an option... Thanks in advance.

thanks man, i'll keep that in mind... one question tho... do the e-brake cables mount up to the rear side of the rear rotors or to the front side of the rear rotors?... cuz if they mount up to the rear, i might just order me a pair to try out... thanks bud.

just use the DC (integra) brake lines and u will be fine, that what i did... dont go to the dealer as u will get RAPED, try a junk-yard first then dealer as ur last resort.

a friend of mine put a rear disc on his hatch, and the ebrake cables connected to the handle from underneath the car and if yours does that, try some ebrake cables from a del sol si, they should work, but i am not positive! good luck

94 and up Integra's will work. Just make sure u use the right Master Cylinder /Brake Booster ... if ur car has ABS then u will need an ABS MC/BB if not than a non-ABS MC/BB

btw the link to my car pics is fixed now
