drum to disc

[Goliath]

just wondering if it's possible to change drum brakes to disc brakes.

how much would that be?

is it labor intensive? or i need to let a mechanic to do it?

Why not?

Thre price diference between OEM rotors and performance discs and pads ISN'T very far off.

fuck it man...........unless your tracking your car u wont need to waste that money....i got drums and my car stops like a mother fucker. haha ive gone from like 120 to 0 in some pretty small distances

I wouldn't bother. Disc brakes tend to weigh quite a bit more than drums, and typically your rear brakes contribute very little to the stopping power of the car. Unless you are doing some big time autox you should keep the drums and save your cash.
