Default just picked up a crx hf w/ a sohc vtec swap in. more....

I'm swapping my 91 civic si's full poly suspension w/ koni's and eibachs over to the rex and will soon be swapping my ls/b16 over to it as well. For now i'm keeping the sohc to get used to the car at speeds and i need to know what is the cheapest, most effective way of upgrading my brakes to handle my higher speeds?
IT will have the full civic si suspension on it but my civic still only came w/ drum rears. How much of a diff. will it make if i swapped in the 'teg trailing arms w/ the discs? I plan on auto-xing it the rest of this season and then finish building it for h1. I was going to use my civic but then changed my mind so i bought my bro's crx.
any help would be appreciated.

Front Brakes - start with carbotech XP's and Motul/ATE and fresh rotors. If this doesnt work... then look for alternatives.

Rear brakes - i like discs because there's more pad selection and servicing is easier... there's no performance benefit.
