[hr]I was just wondering if you know that adding octane+ to 93 octane gas actually doesn't do anything for your octane......Anyway, I was wondering if you could take LOTS of pictures, as I am planning to do this swap also, and if it's not too much trouble, maybe a parts list?? Any little bit is appriciated!! [hr]

Rep Power: 0 doing the rear disc brake conversion is actually pretty straight forward. the good news is that you shouldn't have to switch master cylinders, i'm not totally done with mine yet (cause the place i ordered the rear suspension from sent me one that has a bent spindal) but everything appears to work fine. it does just bolt right on just so you know.

Rep Power: 0 cosmicjim: you will need the rear lower control arm, upper control arm (just get a new camber piece), abs line, rubber line to caliper, emergency brake cable, and the brake assembly itself. if you use the rsx strut/spring setup the ride height will be fine, if you use what i did, using koni and ground control from the civic then connect that to the lower control arm that alone will drop your car 1 inch. to attach the emergency brake cable, you will have to take appart your console, but it just bolts right in, with no other modifications or anything.

Rep Power: 0 venomscivic: all i had to do to get them to fit with absolutely no problems was to take a 5/8 inch drill bit and drill them out. with doing that they mounted up perfectly, using the rsx bolts even. the front was more tricky to do, and took a lot more time, but was well worth it. the picture isn't that great, but if you would like i'll get you a better one, just let me know.
