    Another option for you is the Nissan brake upgrade which uses bigger discs and calipers and is around the same price iirc

    XT130 Struts - $60
    Discs - $160
    Calipers - $250
    RA60 Brake Hose - $44

    TOTAL = $514 In the car provided you already
    have shock inserts and springs to use.

    And the R32 or R33 setup will cost you about $1.2k~, provided you already
    have shock inserts and springs to use.
