Look for a set of disk brakes (all 4 wheels) from a AE92 GZE Levin from Japan. They bolt stright into the AE93, and stop on a dime for a standard car. And they fit under 14" wheels. (this is what i have in my AE82, and they work a treat!)
For the rear, you must get the hub and hub carrier as well, as the caliper bolts to the hub carrier, and is a different casting to the drum rear end. Also, you may need to get new brake hoses made up for the disk rear end. Also, dont forget to get the disk hand brake cable!!!!!!
Dont bother with front disks on the rear, as the front end is where all the real stopping is done. Standard rear disks will be enough. Also, you may have fun trying to get a front caliper mounted on the rear.
If you can get them, the 4 wheel disk setup from a 'super strut' AE101 GT would be the go, but they need to be imported from Japan, and are like rocking horse poo to find.
Have fun!
Craig.
