no, well, not easily. its a bolt on affair to get the integra hardware. i dont really see how you would convert the front to use on the rear.

Can't you just use the front rotors from the civic to convert the rear drums?
I know it has been done, but the person that did that wasn't very happy with the results and it wasn't bolt-on as sacicons noted.

It may be possible but it'll probably cost more cash and time than swapping the integra rears.

I saw an AEM rear disc conversion on ebay yesterday. Cost about $700 or so.

I just bought the rear setup from the 94+ integra. The brake lines are there, but the e-cables are cut. I know I need a proportioning valve and the e-brake cables, anything else? Now is it possible to grease the bearings? I'm taking everything apart to have it cleaned and I'm putting drilled discs on there too. I also want to pain the trailing arms with something glossy black, but durable. U guys know any good stuff for that?

I'm gonna do it as soon as snow melts...and from the looks of it it's just an hour added to a regular brake job...
