How hard is the conversion? On a scale from 1-10? And as for my mechanical "skills" I'm swaping my engine this weekend. so I guess you can use that as the template for the whole 1-10 thing.

I've talked to local salvage yards, and he said about $150 for the rear hubs.

if you're really itching for a donor car, del sol's and some 5th gen civics had rear discs, but those are a little smaller than the teg/si rear discs (or so I've heard)

bolting the hubs isn't too technical, however, you'll be running brake lines and an e-brake cable, plus you'll have to bleed the lines. that might be a little more advanced if you've never gotten under there and poked around.

Which civic are you swapping for?

99-00 Si rear disks are useless to me because they don't have ABS.

Which rear swaps do have ABS?

VTEC model Sols will have ABS, or at least some will. I do not know if they all will or not.The rear discs are the same for all the models. For the Civics and Sols with rear disc and the Tegs, excluding the type-R

nah, all rear discs, rangin from del sols, 5g civics, 6g si, and 3g integra are all the same. and, u dont really need the trailing arm, u can just get the disc assemble and the ebrake cables. its held on with torx bolts. have fun. i picked up my full gsr brakes front and rear from a total integ locally from this dood for 200. search around, ur bound to find a good deal.

In this regard theyre not the same
em1 nonabs does not have the speed sensors
Del Sol vtec abs does, integra does....but if you have abs then you should also already have rear disc
