99-00 si rear discs would work, but since you have a dx, you should do the front as well to keep the braking proportionate.

oh yeah integra brakes work as well.

Use 94+ integra rear brakes and get the 1" mc/booster. I would get the fronts too if you have the money. It makes a huge difference.

you would need the rear trailing arms from a 94+ integra or 99-00 si & calipers rotors and e-brake cables also. for the rear swap

I did a swap from a 95 SI, had to use EK control arms and 95 SI e-brake cable.

this should help you out. And don't spend more money for GSR brakes, they are the same size as any Si rear disc brake set up.

Don't waste your time doing the rears if you are still using the front stock dx brakes. You will see a much bigger gain by upgrading your fronts with the EX/SI/GSR setup.

Hello all I wanted to do all four corners actually. I was just trying to find out what car I have to get all of the parts out of. Looks like 94+ integras is the winner. Thanks for the link also.

Don't forget, 14" front steelies don't work, you need the 15" steelie as a spare tire. Just letting you know, just in case you get stranded somewhere. Good luck!
