Ive been lookin everywhere for even a hint of the possibility of doing a rear disc brake conversion, but there isnt a kit out there for the '02.... anyone know of one or dont a conversion themselves?!?!?!?

I want to say that someone here has done it with parts off the RSX or an EP hatch, I dont want to scream and yell and tell you to do a search but I bet you'll find an answer that way. Check with some members that have done K20 swaps in their Civics, I think they may have changed their brakes too.

ok i searched and found what i needed... basically the si's rear end knuckles out, but is it any different with the sedan? im wondering cuz i need to know if the cables and hoses are long enough from the si...

No, I believe they are the same for the coupe and sedan. The people with k swaps did a 5 lug conversion. The si is a 4 lug civic.

I did the Si/SiR rear brakes swap on Tekgnosis' 4dr. The cables will reach with some elbow grease..lol.. You need to keep the boots from your car as the ones from the Si/SiR won't fit the holes in the bottom of the car. Everything else should bolt right in.

As a point of additional interest, if you're in Canada or have access to Acura 1/7 EL you can use those rear brakes as well.
