Default rear brake change

Ok i have a 99 Civic hatch and it comes stock with rear drums.. On ebay they sell a complete set Front and Rear rotors for my car.. is there any modifications i need to do to replace the drums with rotors? Or anything else i need to buy to make it work?

Yeah. Most people (including myself) just get rear discs from a '99-00 Si or '94-01 Teg since it just bolts right up. And generally it's a lot less expensive than aftermarket rear disc conversions.

to make it work correctly you need to change the master cylinder, proportioning valve, and rear trailing arms

No, his hatch has the same prop valve as the Si

He doesn't need the change the master cylinder since he won't be pushing anymore fluid than the drums. Prop valve... see above.

How about I take the word on Honda's part number between the prop valves? And take the word on my own experience?
