Well, if you would take the time to go out and look at your car you would realise that you already have disc brakes on the rear. Depending on the model of your car, you either have two piston or four piston calipers on the front. If you have two piston calipers then find a set of four piston calipers in the forsale section, or go get you some at the parts store. If you already have four piston brakes and your not happy, then you must have something wrong with your brakes. Get you some SS brake lines, flush your fluid and bleed the system, get your some descent pads and maybe some drilled rotors and you should be set. The brakes are pretty good on these cars. There would be no need to upgrade the calipers unless you are doing some serious track time.
