Default I have a very simple brake question for you guys

Ok I have a 1995 Civc EX coupe, which for some reason came with rear drums instead of disk werid if you ask me. Anyway I need to do my brakes and would really like to swap out the rear drums for rear disk. What applications will work with my 5th gen civic to make it s PnP process. Any insight would be awesome.
Thanks in advance
Alex

the whole rear trailing arm....stuff like thats not really a "plug and play" process...i know fastbrakes makes a kit that you can take off the whole drum and then bolt on the disc but its a 11 inch disc and a lot of work

Didnt really mean plug in play bad choice of words really. I just wanted to know what will work, just dont want to buy something that will not even work with my year civic. I know that I will have change my whole trailer arm. Just want to know which civic or intergra trailer arm can I use.

92-95 civic disks, trailing arms

94-01 teg disks, trailing arm

new e-brake cables for both though.

and if you do not upgrade your front disks, you can keep you brake booster, master cylinder and proportioniing valve.

94-01 Integra, EG Si and EX rear trailing arms will work.

ABS was optional on EX coupes in '94 and '95. It was not available at all on '93 coupes. It was standard on '92 - '95 EX sedans and optional on the '94 Si hatchback.

Sorta, but actually theres a lot of cool stuff thats labled JDM that really isn't JDM, or it was available in a ton of other countries, just not the US. Those EG6 SiR steering wheels? we got those in canada on CX and DX hatchbacks and most sedans. Stanely clear corners? Europe got those as well, south america too I believe. and parts of Europe got way nicer headlights than either the US or Japan, they're glass like the USDM versions, but they don't have the nipples in the glass, they're also power adjust, the switch goes in the center console and allows you to adjust the beam up and down from inside the car.
