Sorry Mr Plow, but the AE92's are a little different... ( i run AE92 rears disks on my AE82 and found out the hard way..)
On the AE82, the caliper on the rear hangs off a plate sandwiched between the hub and the hub carrier. on the AE92, the reare brake caliper hangs of the hub carrier directly. The actual hub with the wheel studs is identical tho.
So to convert from drum to disc on the AE92 you will need, disk, caliper, rear hub carrier, hand brake cable and brake hoses.
Yes, you should be able to use the rears off a AE92 SX, but you will need the hub carrier as well!
I got all 4 corners from a AE92 GZE from Japan for $400. The fronts will do much more for improved brakeing than just upgrading the rears.
Dont forget to get that hand brake cabel as well! (seen that catch a few people out) and get a manual that shows you how to adjust the handbrake setup on the calipers when you put new pads in the rear!
good luck.
Craig.
