Default CRX brake upgrade

I have a '91 CRX Si, and i'm putting in a b16. But before I do, I want to upgrade my brakes. I'm thinking gsr or si brakes up front. I'm wondering if any of you guys have upgraded your brakes all the way around, what you've done, and how much work/money it was to install. Thanks for the input guys

about $500 for the 11" front gsr brakes (rebuilt calipers/new rotors/pads/adaptor kit) www.fastbrakes.com and stainless steel brake lines for all 4 corners

the new brakes make a huge difference...so long as your tires can grip...i have 15" x 6"s on my rex and my stock brakes couldn't handle stopping them well)

I'd definately recommend spending money on a big brake kit upfront. before changing the rears to discs. It'll help more w/stopping.

I personally haven't changed anything but that would be the logical choice, IMHO.
