That way is cheaper but if you have the money then go for it, it comes with everything you need and its upgraded big ass brakes all the way around.

Why not? I did a complete swap out of a 95 GT into my 90. I installed new pads but all the other parts were used. It was cheap and the car stops great. Save yourself $1800 and do the SN95 swap. [patriot]

junkyard SN95 take-off parts with `95 spindles/hubs , north racecars rear caliper brackets, and FRPP 5 lug axles will be the cheapest way to do it.

But the cobra brake kit is much better...

really depends on what you want, if you just want 5 lug 4 wheel disc brakes, junkyard'ing it or buying the parts used is the way to go!
