Ffr,s are the inexpensive way to go, but they also have a very easy upgrade pathway.

For a durability point, the 4 lug stuff should be fine and would last longer due to the weight difference of cob vs fox. With that said , the 5 bolt change for the front is just a rotor swap, the 5 lug swap for the back is axle shafts and drums, stock, or you can upgrade to rear disc brakes in a number of different manners.

The proposed car has rear discs right?

Keep in mind there are some significant chassis changes between 87-93 and 94-95 and 1996 onward.

The good news is the factory five car is kind of like Lego bricks , any combination of parts can be had and installed with some effort.

The only thing holding back factory five cars from a resale standpoint is that very unpredictability , so if you are smitten with a factory five kitten, ger her checked out by the vet-er-Narian.

Picking her up tomorrow. Car was manufactured in 2003, completed in 2008 and has 700 miles on the odometer. Rear end is a "Cobra Racing" (?) 8.8 piece with 3.55 gears and posi unit. Transmission is a new Tremec 5-speed. Front end has adjustable, tubular upper and lower A-arms with a new rack unit. Looking hard it appears the donar parts are the disc brakes on all four corners and the fuel inject 302 under the hood. Already looking at stepping up for Wilwood brakes. I can live with the fuel injection for the rest of this summer!
