Default Rear Disks in my CRX?

after doing a bit of searching I hear I can use the assembly out of...

1990-91 Civic or CRX Si
1990-93 Integra
1994-01 Integra

if I also want to swap my 4lug hubs for 5lug hubs what else would I need if its possable.

The 4th gen Civic hatchback never came with discs. The crx si did from '90-'91. The '90-'01 Integra is good (any <U>will</U> work, include type R, which is 5 lug). Also, any civic from '92-'00 that had a rear disc will also fit your crx. I am not sure about RSXs or the newer civics.

Like I mentioned, just buy the rear brake/suspension assembly from a type R and put it into your crx. And presto, 5 lug.

am i the only who feels 5 lug isn't worth it? it's been done enough time it's not special or anything anymore, and there's absolutely no benefit in running a five lug over 4 lug (of course, i don't feel there's any reason to run anything bigger than 15-16" wheels, either).

for me, it's all about functionality.

You can go to PasswordJDM and get the whole rear disc conversion for 200.

Yep, that being said, why swap to Disc? Theres no functional gain whatsoever from drums to disc. The only thing you gain is a little bit of looks, and quicker brake changes.

Unless you Roadrace your car all week then do AutoX on weekend you dont need disc brakes.

Bigger or heavier discs in general are going to slow you down, given the extra ratational mass.
