Default 96-00 civic rear disk conversion

Ok fellas i've done some searching and w/ limited access to the internet at work I can't find what all I would need to convert my rear drums on my 96 civic coupe to rear disks. Can i use the set up off a teg and if so what all do I need to do this. Are the only diff the lower control arms? Will the rear disks off a DA work?

You can take rear disks off any 88-00 Civic with rear disks or 90-01 Integra. Take the whole trailing arm. Ebrake cables from 99-00 Civic Si will work the best, but 94-01 Integra ebrake cables will work too.

Would the brake master cylinder have to be replaced?

use your lower and upper control arms. Also use the civic 'angle adjuster'? (used to adjust the cars toe in/out)

I've also been wondering about the brake conversion for my 96 hatch, currently i can get everything I would need of of some DAs being parted out, I was thinking that I might as well pickup the whole suspension/brake setup, brake booster, master cylinder, and proportioning valve

Is there anything that should be pointed out to me, will some things not work on my ek, and/or need modifications to be setup properly other than modding the brake lines concerning the master cylinder and proportioning valve

Dont you also need the brake lines from a 99-00si? And also you have to change to a 40/40 proportioning valve.
