Default Brakes for a STD

I have a 1990 Honda Civic STD. The 4 speed manual. You know, the realllllly fast civic. J/K. Anyway, I want to upgrade my drum brakes in the back to discs. Since the Civic SI of that same year (1990) does have disc brakes in the rear. I would like to know if this swap is easy or hard, direct fit or not? Then the next thing I would like to know is how to upgrade the single rotor upfront into vented rotors, is it necessary to replace the master cylinder? Anyone have any experience with brakes or have any idea with this 'brake' stuff? All suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Also, one last thing, any thoughts about the JDM SiR brakes?

hey bro

do a search on this site, this is an often discussed topic; you should find tons of stuff.
Also try a search on the web, and I know the Hybrid website has a bunch of material on this:
