Default 91 std brake conversion question

hey hows it going?
well i got a brake question that i tried searching but failed in receiving any info. i looked through the really helpful FAQ questions that i usually turn to for any questions that i have thats been answered already, and i failed again to find anything helpful. so now im buggin. i got a 91 std and wanna get rid of the stock brakes especially the rears. i was wondering what all you peoples would recommend? would you go for the DA brakes, Si brakes, or if its possible to do any other kinda brake conversions that would be really good. if theres a thread out there that you people can direct me to i would appreciate it or if you wanna put your 2 cents i will appreciate that as well.
thanks for your time

You can swap 91 CRX SI rear trailing arm or 90-93 integra trailing arms.

That being said, the rear drums are lighter and work much better.

I don't know about the rear drums being BETTER. But the fact of the matter is that they get the job done just as well as rear disk would for well over 90 percent of people. Rear disks are, in most cases, unnecessary overkill. And yes, they ARE heavier. Especially if you go with the light, aluminum 1984-1987 HF brack drums.
