I went to a local junkyard and pulled off a rear disc brake set-up from a 92 or 93 accord 4-door and put it on my 1991 Accord coupe. It took a while to take off and it was a pain in the ass to drag it all the way to the front office (they aren't as light as they look). I went to a performance shop and they put it in. Charged me for 3 shop hours and wallah! Rear disc brakes!

92/93 accords have rear disk brakes?

if they got abs, then yes

You can covert the car to use 6th gen V6 brakes in front as well using 6th genparts and you get one very nice bonus. no more press on rotors :P

The 7thgens I thought all had 4 wheel disc. If not, just find another wrecked 7th gen with rear brakes and pull off the parts. FYI - you'll need the parking brake cables too.

I just did this to my 6thgen in aug.

7th-gen Accord LX has drums, EX has disks. Seems like that's the normal pattern, with some exceptions.

I got most of my parts off ebay or honda parts sites.
