i went to the junkyard and pulled off the whole rear knee assembly w/ the discs and the ebrake cables, along w/ the sway bars off a 92 4 door integra gs..... that's all i need to install it onto my si right, as long as i have all the bolts right? Is there gonna be anything else i'm gonna need to do the conversion??

you only need the rear trailing arms, the disc brake assembly, the lower control arms, and the sway bar.

Im doing this exact swap as we speak except for i got it off a 91 CRX Si so i'll need to grab me up some integra brake cables..

ok here it goes again

for rear disk conversion u need.....

e-brake cables:

civic HB- integra 2 door cables
civic 4d- integra 4 door cables
CRX- CRX 90-91 Si cables

for trailing arms:

all civic and CRX's use 90-93 teg trailing arms ONLY the trailing arm if you are doing a REAR sway bar upgrade make sure that the lower arm that the sway bar mounts to is the ONLY teg arm that you use or you will have really wacky camber (trust me i have tried teg parts are just a HAIR off)

Brake lines:

all CRX and CIVIC will need new brake lines i recomend steal braided but u can use the teg ones

thats it the swap is pretty striaght foroward

ENJOY!!!!

I just did the same swap last week, it all went perfectly. I bought brand new e-brake cables from ACURA, costed about $80. you need all the hardware for the e-brake cables to connect to the caliper. doing this swap will also change the offset of you suspension. it will put the rear wheels out a bit. my 17's rub now. I just ordered a new rear camber kit so I can put some negative camber on the rear wheels. I am going to do the fronts as well. going to pick them up tomorrow. I'll try to get pics.
when you bleed the brakes at the end of your swap, bleed the whole system clean, you will get a alot of air, bleed all the bad shit out, very important.

all I need is like .50-.75 degrees of negative camber. The tires won't get worn excessively, the will wear on the inside first, but as long as the toe is 0 degrees, it will be fine. TOE is the worst thing for excessive tire wear.
ever look at a bmw M3 from behind? look at the 1.2(guessing) degrees of camber it has from the factory. camber is ok in moderation toe is bad.
