Rep Power: 0 It would have to be entirely a custom job, since I don't know of a company who makes a conversion for our cars (like the AEM conversion for the 6th gen). So unless you knew what you were doing and could pull off the custom job yourself, I would say forget about it... to much money.

There is like 100 threads going on this.

EP3 parts, take the drums off, put the discs on. Some in the south Cali forum had a pretty good write up on it and did it for about $600. RedDragon333 has a conversion. It's been done, and of course it works. Why else would you do it?

The rear brakes require the discs, but if you want them to work like they should you'll need the brake master cylinder. It's not that expensive and it's not even a custom job. The front is closer to being more of a custom job since it requires more money from the price of the axles.
