anyone know how much its gonna run me to convert my back drums to disc brake?

 

depending if you do it your self, or have someone do them.. i think i bought my rear disk brakes, and complete off a 90-93 integra for $250.. so it cost me 250.. hit up junk yards.

 

It will also cost you a little less braking force, a little more weight, and a little more rolling resistance. Just something to consider...

 

don't bother...keep your drums unless you are going for looks.

 

yulp, its all looks.. but for me.. i had 2 out of spec drums, and 1 leaking wheel cly.. so for me, i was a decent upgrade.. besides they look awsome..

 

lol yeah they do look good

 

haven't done it yet, but I refuse to learn how to work on drums....blah blah....im hard headed....I'm gonna eventually. cant be too hard....plus discs are easier to work on...

 

yes they are easier.. no springs, no levers, none of that crap.. just a piston cylnders.

 

the only **** off part about drums is not changing them, on hondas I think the hardest part is getting the drum off so that you can gain access to the shoes.
I mean once you use the shoes, it gets hard after so many miles to take the drum off!

 

yulp, then you have to look around for those bolts to press them off.. just a pain.. only down fall on the rear disk i think, is the brake dust.. oh well.. i'll live.

 

does anyone have a parts list do this conversion?

 

90-93 integra complete rear hubs, with trailing arms, or 90-91 CRX Si.. complete hubs, with trailing arms.. **with E Brake cables on both ** thats it.

They are 1 peice.. like a total of 6 bolts.. do a search on Google, or whatever for rear disk coversion for crx.. can't be that hard.. better yet, i have a link..

I have seen the whole conversion at honda dismantlers for $150, and are easy to do just need a little time.

what do you need to put in the integra front brakes. do you need to change the booster and mc? any links for this conversion?

 

someone posted a link in the "crx disc brakes" thread, i believe it says no.

 

ive heard you don't have to get a porportioning valve, or MC... but its "Highly recomended..? "

 

Fastbrakes has a new kit that converts the rear drums to disks. It uses some pretty big disks. 11" or 11.4" if I remember correctly.
