Yes, I beleive you can. Do realize that only the front set is different from ours. (I think about one inch larger)
If your interested, Saleen has a good deal on them.

a few have posted before do a search. i cant remember but the calipers in front are the same you just need the gt bracket and rotor. so you could get rotorpro drilled and slotted rotors fro about 240 and both brackets for about 80 bucks 320 plus tax and your done taht way you dont even have to undo the brake lines. and you will have drilled and slotted brakes.

I don't know much on the technical side of brakes. I've replaced pads before and that's about it. What exactly is the dilled and slotted part of that for? I'm assuming a cooler running brake, therfore less chance of warpage, but I could be well of base. So anyone wanna give me a brief tutorial? I know that larger diameter brakes lead to shorter stopping distance anything else on that I may want to know?

THE ROTORPROS ADVANTAGE
The cross drilled and slotted combination act as a ventilation system to keep the disc and pads cooler. Lower disc brake temperatures reduce, if not eliminate, brake fade thus enhancing performance and rotor life. These rotors help keep braking temperatures up to 250 degrees cooler than your stock application. Heat is the number one cause of "WARPED" rotors. You will no longer have to worry about warped discs
