Default brake swap help

I'd like to improve the braking in my 92 b18c1 cx hatch. I haven't had a chance to do much of a search on the topic but i was hoping someone might be able to lay out the correct parts i would need to upgrade to the integra brakes and rear discs ( my car is non abs, and i would assume it is really complicated to add abs, so i'd be happy just with intergra or si brakes). Is gsr necessarily better than ls. Any other honda brakes work well?

How well could I improve my braking with better rotors and pads using the cx brakes? Could it even compare?

Price estimates on parts and labor and any intallation tips would be appreciated as well as specific parts needed.. thanks for suggestions.

i have 94-00 gsr front brakes on my b18c1 eg...
it doesn't matter whether the brakes have abs or not because your car doesn't...
you use stock brake lines...

for the rears, you'll need the ebrake cable from the gsr...

you can also use 92-95 ex/si disc brakes for rear...

for the front you need something w/ a b-series spline for the axles...
