You can use 94-01 integra rear trailing arms w/ ebrake cables. It is pretty easy. Just unbolt the stock lower control arm and then bolt up the integra one. Attach all necessary cables and lines, blead the brake lines, and then get an alignment a.s.a.p.

The AEM conversion is pricey....the plus side of it is that it uses brand new parts.

Using either 94-01 integra or 99-00 civic si rear disk parts works. You can usually find all the parts to do the conversion for between $200-350. I picked up a set of civic si rear suspension/disk brakes with ebrake cables for $200 which I sold to a friend. He just installed them with new pads and resurfaced the rotors.
