Find a CRX with rear disc brakes that is being parted out and buy the discs, the arms and e brake cable and I would upgrade the master cylinder to an Si.

Moved to the right forum and there may be other items you need that I did not mention.

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.

Most of the braking for a CRX is on the front end. If you can lock
up the front brakes, get wider tires, if you cannot lock up the brakes,
get better brake pads........

Most of the time discs on the back may get you some bling points on a show car but don't stop you quicker, because of what I said in the first paragraph.....

Ohhh. And if you can stop the front end......I guarantee the back end will be within 13 feet of it...........most of the time...... -Bob
