well you don't need rear disc to stop quickly you need to get a front GSR disc swap

You only need rear disc if you do a lot of cornering

I did this on my 98 ex coupe but I'm currently fighting horrible suspension squeaks which I can't get to go away...other than that I really like the extra help as I'm in atlanta, ga and I CAN tell the stopping difference between the two heh....

I've also had my alignment done twice and for some reason the back tires still point inward at the top and I've got stock ride height
