Default SN95 Brake Upgrade

Are there any brake upgrades I can do for my 95GT without getting a kit that costs $1000?

I did the real also but for that I got the Ford racing 13 inch rotor kit from sumit. Alsoleft and right cobra caliper mounts from ford for (about)$45 a side. Rear calipers are the same for GT's, cobra's.
