Default 95 civic lx front brake upgrade?

I have a 95 civic lx 4 dr with a boosted d15 and after having my brake smoke a few times I have been looking into upgrading my brakes.
I found this for sale pretty close by http://billings.craigslist.org/pts/3583316620.html and wondering if it will bolt in to my car or i can take just the calipers and discs or??
let me know what you guys think,
Thanks

You can swap all of that over. Will all bolt on just fine. Might as well replace wheel bearings and bushings too while your at it and its apart.

Car felt way different after 4 wheel integra disk swap. Stops much better. It is worthwhile. Factory lx brakes arent that great obviously.

It was a noticeable difference but I had a lot of pedal travel due to not replacing the master cylinder. It was a big difference when upgrading my master cylinder. The brakes feel more firm than my 07 infiniti and my 00 lexus. One of the best upgrades I have done so far besides my gsr swap!!!
