Default crx suspension and brake setup, whats best? thanks!!

hey guys
got my b20vtec up and going in my 90 crx dx, I want to convert my rear drums to discs.Did some research, I know what is needed, I was just wondering if their are other e-brake cables I can use? or must they be from a crx si? also how different is the 90-93 aucra ls and the gsr's, to 99 -00 si's disc brakes differ? is there a best setup? like rotors size and claiper design? thanks guys been looking for info on this lately, also anyone know whats a good fron camber kit thats working the best for them? I have a "ingles" type kit where it pushes the arm away from the body, and causes the arm to hit the inner fender.. looking for something like an adjustment at the ball joint like they offer for the newer cars.. thanks!! looking to buy!

good luck on the brakes, i just got the sir rear disc braekes and had no problems there. well as for the camber problem, i bought the ball joints but for the upper control arms, the balljoints dont push out so you have to buy aftermarket ones and that's a pain to do. then after that the same thing happens, it gets pushed out and the balljoint/control arm hits the inner fender. if you find anything else then let me know.

hey guys
just picked up a complete gsr brake setup front and back... I was wondering if I could use these whole knuckles? havent got to look at it much yet,, I htink I heard I have to get 90-93 ls knuckles to run my gsr calipers and rotors? also is the rear ebrake the same on these as the crx si? I believe its from a 00 gsr??? not to sure, and if the ebrake setup is the same should I just get the 90 si ebrake cables? thanks
