There are several threads on this subject so a search under rear disc should provide most of the information you are seeking! In a nutshell if wanting rear disc your only current option that we know of is to install an HHR / Cobalt SS rear axle! They can be found in the $500.00 to $750.00 range! Then you can do big brakes from there! If not wanting to throw down that amount of cash we had some new rear drums sprayed at the powder coaters with a heat discipating paint in a mat black finish! They have retained the original finish for over a year now and beings done in a mat black do not stand out behind our 18" wheels like some colored or rusted ones do!

SS Rear Axles are often listed on ebay or can be located on the following site:
