Unless your doing an engine conversion or can do it dirt cheap I wouldn't bother personally.

On my non sport mk2 clio with drum rears, when the ABS broke, I could lock the rear wheels before the front (172 front brakes and decent discs & pads).

Just make sure the rear drums are well serviced and in good condition.

If you really want to do it, Need to change hub (caliper mounts), handbrake cables, brake lines (the metal ones on the beam), obviously discs, pads, calipers etc.

Not really worth it.

Absolutely. Not to mention the handbrake is crap on models with rear discs.
