Hello, I have a 1992 mustang GT hatchback and am trying to figure out which route I should go with my build. The current budget only permits either rear disc brakes, while retaining a 4 lug bolt pattern, or running cobra brakes in the front and rear drums with a 5 lug bolt pattern. Would they offer the same performance? Which would be cheaper? Any thoughts?

Front brakes would provide more performance.

Save your money and do both. Swap to five lug too.

Cobra fronts would be better unless you wanna stay 4-lug like I’m going to do with my drop.
