They should come with discs in the front, and drums in the rear. You can get a disc brake conversion done.

don't buy a "rear drum-to-disk" conversion kit...i think its too damn expensive, but if you have the money...then go ahead...

If your car has ABS then it has rear disc if not then NO. The rear disc brakes on the 94-01 integ and 99-00 Si are decent but a pain in the ass if the calipers are frozen. If your're not going to do some heavy autox I wouldn't bother with it.
