Don't think it's a direct bolt on but I'm sure you could make it work. Just get rear trailing arms off a 92-95 ex/si or 94-00 tegs.

ek and integra have the same trailing arms, so anything with rear discs will work. only thing u cant use is the ek LCA.

EG and integra have the same rear trailing arms. As I understand it, EK are slightly different. However the EK trailing arms should work on the EG. I believe that you need to keep your stock lcas, compensator arms, and upper control arms. Also get the e-brake cables from the 92-95SI.

However if you don't already have the big front brakes (ex/si/gsr), then I would recommend that you upgrade those first.

Got mine from a salvage yard for $275. I replaced rotors and pads. Everything else was good. That didn't include master cylinder or brake booster, but I didn't need them since I have an EX.

you don't really need a larger booster/master cylinder if you aren't upgrading the fronts. although, you should look into getting a proportioning valve for rear discs.

ek and eg trailing arms are the same, just the lower control arm.

also when swapping to rear disks, its a good idea to swap the proportion valve too.

90-93 has a 4040 prop

92-95 civic (w/rer disk)

del sol si/vtec

integra 94+

just to name a few...

brake master cylinder would also be a good idea to upgrade. you DONT HAVE to upgrade brake booster.... just get a larger brake master cylinder that would fit your stock booster. but as simple and painless as it is, the brake booster definately helped my car....
