Default Brake conversion

I jsut did an engine swap into a civic and becasue of the power increase I want to change the rear drum to disc. What would be the most afforable way to do this but still have good quality.

Get a CRX or Integra rear disc setup. Not much else to do really. Pads of your choice, but don't get something that doesn't match the front.

These swaps run for $75-$150. Bolts in in a couple hours.

When you say matches the front do you mean in rodor size and all that.

I just mean in pad material. Putting hawks in the rear with plain ol honda pads in the front is a disaster waiting to happen. Don't worry about rotor size, it's like communism, you only have one choice.
