Default Help on rear brake changeover

Ok, guys and gals. I'm going to be going to rear disk
brakes on my 89 Dx since i'm going to go hybrid in the
future. Now I saw a CRX Si in the junkyard with the rear
disk brakes. What exactly do i need to get to make the
changeover. It there somewhere i can go and read EXACTLY
how to do it. Like how to remove this and that. This is
going to be my first serious project and i don't want
to mess it up. Any help is really appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I think you have to swap the rear lower arms, to get everything to bolt up and work. Get a repair manual, Helms seem to be the preffered choice, but a Chilton's or Haynes may also be useful!
Get the anti-sway bar while you are doing the swap

Can someone tell me the exact parts I'm going to need in
order to complete the swap?

You need 90-93 Integra or 90-91 CRX rear trailing arms. 90-91 CRX E-brake cables. Thats it unless you want to change the rotors, calipers and upgrade to SS brake lines.

Now how do you remove the E-brake cables? and does the
cable go all the way to the e-brake handle?
Sorry for the ignorance.
