Honda Civic rear brake conversion

Greg & Co:

 

How do I assess points for the following REAR brake conversion:

 

From: Stock Honda Civic VX drums

To: Stock Honda Civic Si discs with stock Si calipers

 

The swap will require the rear trailing arms w/brakes to be completely removed & replaced as a unit. The arms & calipers will be the only change: the balance of the suspension (where & how it mounts to the frame, shock mounting location & orientation, etc) appears to remain stock.

 

I also want to confirm that urethane bushings are free.

 

Thanks.

Dave,

 

Take the +2 for brake calipers, and the +1 for rear trailing arms.

 

Yes, the urethane bushings are free.
