well for a direct answer to a direct question, ANYTHING is possible... the difference between not done and done will be a combination of skill and money... if less skill, it will be more money...

everything in the front brakes? Even if you get the whole caliper set up, you'll have to find a way to mount it. Unless you're REALLY good with fabrication I wouldn't try.

I recommend the rear disc brake conversion because its designed for our cars and easy to install.
It's expensive but well worth it.

Here is the DIY that I used. Its just missing the e-brake part but that's easy to figure out.
