Some 5th Gen Coupes had rear discs and were called EXa, which equals 4 wheel discs and ABS. I think all the Hatchback Sis had them to.

I think it was an intragenerational thing on the EX's, cause my friends moms 94 EX coupe has rear discs, but another friends 95 EX coupe has rear drums.

He must have an S model Del Sol because the Si and the VTEC models have rear disc brakes. He can use the brakes off a 5th gen. civic. If he wants more info than he should look at Team Del Sol Site and if he still wants more info than he should go to Honda Vision and go to the Del Sol board, lots of info.
