What have you paid for a rear disc conversion?
Hey, I'm planning on doing a rear disc brake conversion soon, but I looked around today and our main import junkyard wanted $125 per control arm...without the calipers...
I just thought that sounded a bit high so wanted to ask you all what you paid for yours?
They were from a 1995 Del Sol VTEC... I know I can also get them from a 99-00 and they'll bolt up. What other cars control arms are direct bolt ons or require little modding? Thanks!

I believe that http://www.passwordjdm.com also sells rear brake conversions for ~$150
Edit here is a direct link- http://www.passwordjdm.com/pro...D=251
Edit again, I just noticed they were out of stock

I paid $40 for all 4 corners off a wrecked 4-wheel disc EX. Calipers and all. Keep looking local if you aren't in a hurry, good deals do come by.

Going rate at any junkyard is $75 per spindle. They can be talked down a bit or talked into throwing in swaybars etc. Some junkyards take advantage of Honda kids cuz they know you're all ricey *** little rich kids. Not all of us, but most of us.

Yeah I'm far from being a ricey rich kid...more of a poor oem adult... Anyway thanks for all the information everyone.
I checked our local junkyards they don't have anything except that one del sol in which they want $250 for the lcas without calipers...
