Default si vs. integra rear disc brakes

what are the differences... im putting them on my EK which ones better?

also is rear disc helpful or just for looks...

and is $150 for a rear disc conversion a good price?

Should I get crossdrilled/slotted rotors too? will that help me

and is PBR vs. Autozone Semi Meatallics... does it really matter?

Thanks for answering

All rear discs and trailing arms are the same. The exception is the DA trailing arm. DA trailing arms have longer compensator arms and a bigger trailing arm bushing, other than that they're the same as the others.

I think it looks better and will run cooler since you have airflow across the rotor. The only reason i converted was because i didn't know how to change drum brakes.

What's included for $150?

I think those are for looks. I use oem rotors.

$150 is about right for rear disc conversion.
they do work better than drum brakes along with looking better
staying with a stock rotor or going cross-drilled is up to you. Personally, I'd either run a stock rotor or slotted, crossed drilled are known for warping faster (at least on front rotors).

im curious, i know with the eg's, the teg rear discs bolt up just fine. i have a 99ex and my drums are about dead. instead of doing the rear shoes, i figured that the discs would be easier and more or less the same cost in the end. for the 96-00 ex, is the only option to use the 99-00 si rear trailing arms? thanks
