Hey there,

I currently have a 2003 Honda Civic LX. It came with stock rear drum breaks that I would really like to get rid of. I was wondering if aftermarket rear drum kits are available for this model. If they are available, where would I be able to pick some up.

Thanks

don't know if any are available but u can use ep3 ones.

 

sorry, kinda dont understand. ep3?

 

ep3 is the chassis code for the civic si hatchback from 01-05 i believe (not entirely sure if it went to 05 or not)

 

I think you are asking for rear disc brakes even though you worded it wrong.

Since you are from Canada you can grab the rear brake components from an Acura 1.7EL 2001-2005 or a Honda Civic SIR hatch (ep3) 2002-2005. You can probably go to a junkyard and find all the parts you would require.

Here is the link to the DIY to upgrade from rear drums to discs:

Ah, so those would fit eh? Definatly going to look into that. How much do you think those would run? CDN or USD i can do the conversion.

 

Brand new from Acura or Honda would be a ridiculously expensive price.

At the junkyard i'm not too sure in your area.

Thanks a ton bro, yeah i did word it wrong...lol i have drum brakes but want new drums....? no thanks lol. Appreciate the fast replies on my issue.

 

none of the junk yards around here have them

seems to me i've seen ppl selling them in the few hundered US dollar range tho

 

- '02-'03 ep3 rotors
- '02-'03 ep3 calipers & brake pads
- '02-'03 ep3 brake lines
- '02-'03 ep3 knuckles, dust covers and spindles
- dc5/ep3 e-brake cable

LX's don't have abs right? so you'll need to get a prop valve from the ep3 as well.
