Noob question

Hey guys.. i was takin apart my '80 zx's brakes, and since the car hasnt been touched in like 15-20 years, they obviously need to be replaced. I know upgrades arent exactly necessary because the stock brakes are pretty good, but i was just wondering what my options are..

I'm definitely looking into rear disc conversion and drilled and slotted rotors. I also want to upgrade the calipers to 2 or 4 piston ones for front and rear. I have been looking around and i found some kits for the 70-79, but will those work on the 80?

And if suspension needs to be swapped in the process, thats fine because mine is shot anyways.

Thanks in advance!
