Default 4 wheel disc brake conversion

I've got 4 wheel disc brakes on my 4door civic but thats my donor car to my 88 crx. i wanna do a disc brake conversion on it, what is involved in doing so? I think it would be as simple as removing the drums and replacing with disc's and calibers but im sure im not right, what else needs to be done?

thanks in advance!!

Its not to hard to do, you need to swap out the entire trailing arm...the trailing arms are the same and you could just swap out the disc and rums but it is much more involved and I believe you need parts pressed on so do the simple way and swap the trailing arm...you will need the ebrake cables, you can simple tuck the extra up above the gas tank or you can track down some CRX Si cables which are shorter than the civic ones, you should also swap out the proportion valve...I believe thats it, its really simple and you can do it in an afternoon...
