How do you fix that? When you get new bushings, get the ones for a 92+ civic and use the DA outter bushing as an adapter ring to fit them (instead of shelling out the $100 for the mugen adapter).
If for any reason you dont beleive me, or for some magical reason they dont fit, you can always just swap the rear hubs (disc for drums) and presto...rear discs.
