The biggest thing I have been told to get is the e brake cable from the car the rear disc brake swap is coming from.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

i think that is too much. check local junkyards or if somone here has on for cheap. would look into a polyeurathane master bushing kit that replaces all the rubber bushing or at least the rear trailing arm bushing. also of you can look to get the proportioning valve booster and master cylinder from the donor car a great upgrade to have while doing the conversion. also if you can see your way to it a good time to upgrade rotors, such as cross drilled or cross drilled and slotted or slotted and could switch to steel braided brake lines. thats what i did when i had my swap done.

4 x 100 Rear Disc Brake Conversion (used) - $199.99 :: JDMCARBOY.com


so for two hundred you could get that shipped to you door and then go to a junk yard and get an integra proportioning vavle and ebrake cables.
