Default Rear disc brake conversion on 95 civic coupe

First of all, here's what i have: 1995 Civic Coupe DX
The rear disc conversion is from: 1995 integra GSR

Here's what it included:
-Spindles
-Lower/Upper control arms
-Trailing arms
-Rotors and calipers

What else do i need to purchase so that it will work properly?


I've been told on h-t to get a 40/40 proportioning valve and e-brake cables for a GSR.

I'm not familiar with the brake system at all so if you've done this before or know anything, please post it up.

Thanks

ebrake cables is a necessity

depending on whether your car has ABS or not determines which prop. valve/master cylinder you should use if you want to upgrade those too

and you need brake fluid
