Default rear brake conversion CRX

I have a 88 CRX DX, and want to swap rear brake with Si components. Has anyone ever done this? I have a rear clip available to me for parts, should I go that way, or is there an aftermarket kit available? Thanks for the help.

Once you get in there you will see its all self explanitory.
It only takes a few bolts to do the swap.

if you put integra brakes on the back do you retain the stock control arms, or use the DA ones. The DA ones are too long and push the bottom of the tyres out right?

I would go with the stock control arms.
