I've never done anything mechanical to a car. I'm not gunna race the car, it's going to function more as a daily driver.

If money isn't a issue you could get a baer brake kit. Baer sells a kit that converts it to 5 lug, comes with 13" front rotors, 12" rear rotors,big cobra stylecalipers, baer proportioning valve, and steel braided brake lines. I got lucky when I bought my car it already had these brakes on it and they stop amazing. There's a couple picture of my brake's on my cardomain site

Price is going to be a bit of an issue unfortunately. Something $250 or under less is the approximate price range.

well... you won't find any conversion kits for that, but that maximum motorsports kit looks pretty good. i was thinking about getting that. well i will when it's time for new pads. and i've never heard anything bad about MM. other than that i don't know of much else out there... i mean you could get new rotors too. that are cross drilled or slotted. i have cross drilled ones and can't complain. but they were on there when i got the car, so i don't know how the stock ones are

at that price you better learn to turn a wench and start scouring wreaking yards looking for one of the conversions listed in the tech section. Mine was all done under that price but I do 99% of my mods and have a good idea of what to look for even a few items people tried to tell me wouldn't work.
