I noticed some painted interior trim in one of your pictures. :ugh:

For just the rear swap, youll need integra (or Si or EX w/ abs) trailing arms with hub assembly (w/ rotors, calipers, pads), brake lines, e-brake cables. These parts will run you $200-300, generally.

To get better brake feel and control in addition to ditching the drums, you'll want to swap out the master cyl also. This part is usually around $50, and depending what kind you get, you may need to change the booster too.

I replaced the front brakes with teg ones too (larger diameter than my dinky vx brakes).

:edit: also keep in mind, since you have a coupe, that the e-brake cables must come from a 2-door integra, a coupe EX w/ discs, or an Si.

:werd:

wht&slow what did you do for your brake lines (i.e. what size are the fittings etc.) I've had the gsr rear assemblies that I got from a guy here for like $150 but haven't had the time to put them in yet. I'm waiting on ebrake cables that I ordered but am unsure about the brake lines dimmensions.

Sorry for the thread jackh:
