so I was at my local junkyard today looking for an interior door handle (of course nothing for a coupe) and noticed a cb7 with rear discs that look minty. I was wondering is worth my time to pull em off and do a rear disc convo on mine. What do you guys think.

Go ahead and get them. Should be an direct swap, grab the ebrake cable, and the master cylinder while your at it. -
will it work with my master cylinder just in case its not there?Comment

Yes it would.Originally posted by DKRM View Post
For better results you should get a 40/40 proportioning valve off a 90-93 Integra RS/LS (with no ABS)

I wouldnt get the Master Cylinder.Originally posted by cloudasc View Post
The CB's with rear discs have larger brake line fittings that go to the master cylinder.

I got the rear disc set up from the JY for $120! Just get the Ebrake cables and its easier to get the brake lines too. Direct swap. I didnt get the master cylinder or use a prop valve. Everything works perfect and there IS a very noticable difference.Comment

CBs with rear disc brakes also have ABS, which you won't be adding to your car...
The 40/40 prop valve that Jak Frostwhite mentioned is the way to go.
JONESER, if you didn't use a prop valve, then it is NOT working perfectly. You probably notice a significant difference because your rear brakes are grabbing more than they should. That can be very dangerous, causing you to spin out on wet roads, or lose control in a panic stop. Do it right. For your own sake, and the sake of anyone in your path if you lose control.

I got my rear disc conversion from a cd5 and the only think i had to change was the e brake cable because its different. Other than that everything works perfect.Comment

That question was from March.
But yes... the Integra prop valve needed has nothing to do with the lug pattern.

It's all good. Someone with enough sense to search in the future will benefit from it, so that's still a good thing!
