Default '88 Civic brake swap

My little brother (15) just got an 88 Civic, and Im trying to do some research for him. I dont know too much about older Hondas. He wants to swap out the brakes for discs all around. Does anyone know of any factory stuff that will fit without any/too much modifications? I think the older Integras work but not sure. Thanx in advance.

90-91 SI's had rear discs. I know that Teg rears work, but not sure what years.

All tegs rear disk brakes will work, even any Civic rear disk brakes too. Just use your stock LCAs, springs/shocks, etc...

No they don't....you can use the following that I know of:

90-93 Teg rear disc brakes
94-01 Teg rear
99-00 Civic si rear
90-91 crx si rear (this set is a direct bolt on)
or any 92-00 Civic that had rear discs

What set-up are you gonna get?

You need the complete trailing arms with the rotors, calipers, pads...
