im trying to confirm whether the 88-89si came rear drum brakes and 90-92 came with disk...

cause right now im confused about my cars age. it's registered as a 90si, yet the guy that used to own the car said he had to do a rear disk conversion cause the drums kept locking up... so im thinking "ok, maybe it's just a caryover from 89." but then i also noticed i have the door mounted belts only found in 90-92!

also, for the front rotors, will 88-89 fit on a 90-92? im buying a set of cheap ones online and i dont wanna go through the trouble of sending it back.

thanks!

88-89 rexes all came with rear drums. In 90, only the Si's got rear disks.

All 88s had pillar mounted belts. In 89, the Si's and DX's received door mounted belts, and I believe it was 90 when they showed up on the HF too. This only applies to US rexes.

I believe the front brakes were the same for all 4 years on the DX and Si, and the HF had smaller ones for all 4 years.

haha. seems like i my rex was cheated from rear disks since birth.

thanks for help, rex2nr. i'll use this info and get 90-2 front and rear rotors.

you're looking for 90-91 rear discs, there was no 92 CRX. Of course, 92-95 Civic Si rear discs will work, as will 90-2001 Integra rear discs, and 94-97 Del Sol VTEC brakes. I'm thinking 99-00 Civic Si also but I'm not sure.

If i'm not mistaken, i believe 92's exist in Europe.

yeah you could have bought a 92 CRX in Europe or Japan, I'm not sure if all models were available. The only 92's I've ever seen were all SiR's. Plus I don't know where ender_ is located, so I assume north america and there were no 92's over here.

actually i live on Guam, and we're USDM. my bad with the years .

I don't think any CRXs were actually built in 1992, they were just dated 92 because of when they first sold... I've actually heard of a second gen with the title claiming it to be a 1993. That was done in Europe.
