Default rear disc conversion

Hey guys,

I was wondering how pricey it would be to invest in a rear disc conversion for my 01' Accord LX? And how difficult would it be to pull it of in your opinons? Thanks

What was stated above and you will get a big difference in braking ability once you install that. Also rear disks require a lot less maintnence that drum brakes do. (constant adjusting and cleaning)
