you can get rear disc off of any civic,teg with rear disc...

i believe integra e-brake cables work on 92-95 civic as well as 92-95 si e-brake cables ...

you use your lower and upper rear control arms and alignment arms... but some are interchangeable, depending on which rear disc you get

I recently did this conversion on my car. I picked up the rear disk as shown in that pic above off a DC2 in a junkyard for $200, calipers were still fresh, didnt even have rust. The ebrake cables from my civic didnt work anymore, had to get a set for an integra. The brake lines will most likely be cut on them cuz ppl are lazy when removing the trailing arms. If you find them uncut, you're in luck but otherwise you will most likely have to pick those up too. I had aftermarket skunk2 rear control arms so I have no idea if the factory ones will bolt up nice.

Yes, you can use 94-00 Integra rear LCAs on a 92-95 Civic with no problem.

i don't think so...i could be wrong. if i'm not mistaken, you need them off either a 92-95 civic si, civic ex sedan with abs, any dc integra or a del sol si.

If your willing to spend the money, I would suggest an aftermarket drum to disc conversion and then an upgraded front disc kit. Fastbrake makes a kit for both but it is a lot more expensive than a junkyard swap.

Actually they will fit, pretty much all rear disc brakes from 90-00 are the same for Civics/Integras/CRX's.

Something I'm still confused about is, will 90-93 Integra rear disk stuff interchange with the 92-95 hatchback?
I've read that they do and elsewhere that they don't.

Yes, the DA disc brake trailing arms are interchangeable with EG's, but the DA ebrake cables won't work, you'll need to source some from a DC 2/4 door, or a 92-95 EX/Si civic w/ rear discs.
