What to do with the brakes?
I was wondering, is there a way to convert the rear brake drums into brakes discs for the Lancer? If so where can i find them.

Why do you want to do this? If it's a performance thing, you're actually running the risk of damaging the car if the rear discs lock up (the rear end is really quite light)

Very true. I autocross monthly, and disc brakes are not something I see as improving my times so it's not worth the $1000-2000 it would cost me. If you're doing it for show, go ahead. But that just sounds even les bang for the buck if you ask me.
