Default 96 DX Brakes need an upgrade...suggestions

Hey all..
My brakes are about to take a crap, so...

What is the CHEAPEST way I can upgrade a little while I am doing the brake job? EX rotors? What's needed? Etc.

I would also like to do the rear disc conversion, anybody had experience with that, like using the Delsol parts?

Gracias!
Chris

Also, I need to buy a 1996 EX 5 spd ECU. Email "mplex2000@yahoo.com" if ya have one for sale.

Is that master cylinder you sell new, used, or rebuilt brother?

BTW - Sorry to see you leaving the SOHC camp. BUT, it's cool to see you joining the DOHC camp too

Do you have a detailed parts list and a good online source for them on this rear disc conversion?

MC is used. you will need the rear spindle, trailing arm, caliper, rotor, and parking break cables...(usually comes together) this goes for around 250-350 dollars.
