Besides for the AEM one (like $900) is there a kit for this and about what is the expected price? $900 is way to much in my opinion!

If you wanted to convert to the GSR or Si rear disc brakes here's a list of the things you'll need (anybody else correct me if I'm missing something):
Complete GSR/Si Rear trailing arms (discs, calipers, nuts, bolts), brake lines.
You'll also want the GSR/Si proportioning valve and the master cylinder if you don't want to the "flooring" the brake pedal just to slow down. Look on ebay, type in something like "Honda Rear disc brake" and you should find some things you need. (expect around 300 Benjamins). Though if you want to get away for cheaper, you should check your local pic-n-pull.

I think that he was laughing because your post was 0% helpful, but thanks for the interest anyway!

As for those that helped, it is appreciated. I am in Germany now so the pic and pull thing is out of the question, so I guess I am left searching the internet. Atleast I have a list of what I will need. I think I can do the actual install myself. Thanks again!

Yep, it's the CTR lip. I can't really go junkyard diving because I am in Germany.

Very cool man! Thanks for the link! I found someone selling a full kit for about $300, does this sound like a decent deal?

What are you gonna get? A lot of times you might not get the proportioning valve and the master cylinder ($50-$75 more). Ebay, might also be good to check; periodically some kits (without the prop. valve and master) might go for around 200-250. But knowing that you're in service, waiting for those deals may not be an option. 300 is pretty reasonable. Some places will try to sell it to you for $500. Good luck with the build-up and be careful out there, Sarge.

yeah make sure you get what you need at one time its a b**** to try to do it at differ times cost more mobey and time, and the rear disc aint worth s*** without the porp. valve and master cylinder end up being worst than rear drums
