Default 92 lx to ex front brakes

I've searched and can't find an answer.
Can I upgrade my 92 lx 1.5 4 door front rotors, pads and calipers by just swapping those with an ex model?
Or will I need knuckles and booster and mc?

I don't need big brake kit, just simplest way to increase size.
Caliper is leaking so I have to replace this stuff anyway.
Thanks

you'll need the entire front knuckle w/ rotors, calipers, etc.

You don't need the booster/mc (really, you don't even need it for a full brake swap) but if the pedal feels too mushy for you, you can upgrade that later. I don't think the larger front brakes really displace much more fluid, so you'll probably hardly even notice. :thumbup:

as white n slow said, you need the whole knuckle with calipers and rotors. you might as well get the rear drums too because they are also bigger. when i did the fronts my pedal felt al little softer, but when i di the back it felt like normal for some reason. when you get the drums too you need the whole trailing arm FYI.
