In what way!?.............

Grabbier pads,less pedel effort,more fade resistance,looks,racing,AutoX,street??????

What is the reason for wanting to upgrade your brakes?If its perfromance,then theres little reason since the stockers are pretty well up to the task for a stock weight car with up to about 200HP.Unless your road racing or have very sticky tires,they arent going to be overpowered.A turning,a good set of pads and some stainless lines are all you need.
If your doing it for looks,then its going to be a spendy pill to swallow just for asthetics.
Search around,there are a handful of companies that make TII brake upgrades for the 1st gen that are direct boltup sets.
