You do realize that the most commonly done rear disc brake conversion for a 4x100mm Civic (9.5" solid rear discs with Nissin 7CLP13S calipers) has no effect on actual stopping distances or stopping power vs. the original '86-89 Accord-sourced drums, right?

I find it rather amusing that most people on this site who start dickering with their brakes will actually increase stopping distances vs. the factory setup . . .

maybe so but another reason is who wants to look at drums behind a nice set of wheels? lol either way its his car he can do how he pleases. and I had drums on my eg swapped in a b16b and my brakes were way off par. i got brake fade at track days and mountain runs constantly so for me the swap was just what i needed. but to each his own.

^^you cant just bolt up da rear brakes.. youd have to take them apart but part #'s are the same on rotors calipers and pads.. the spindle has to be changed but why do all that when dc bolts right up? the da will work for ef chassis only!

As far as anything i've ever read '90 - '93 (DA) trailing arms bolt up just fine, the only difference i'm aware of between them and the newer '94 - '01 (DC) trailing arms is that the older Integra trailing arms use a different trailing arm bushing (larger IIRC)

I know you're new here, but after you've corrected the same wrong info for years you get sick of it and just start mentioning that its wrong. I don't know how many rear disc threads i've seen pop up in the last 2 weeks, but honestly there isn't really any need for any of them, this stuff has all been covered before. (I know this isn't your thread, i'm just saying)
