You can get the rear disc conversion from these people.

I can't comment on how much better your car will be with rear discs but discs are better than drums anyway. For one thing they are easier to check/change and maintain.

Dont quote me on this but your fronts do somthing like 85% of your braking,so enless your runnig a really good spec engine rear disks are not really needed mate,also im sure you need a rear beam of another car like an astra16v,and need to get a mounting kit to convert it to the nova,plus you then need a brake bias valve to set it up or you will end up locking up the rear wheels under heavy braking.

Ask (Novaneil) he will tell you mate. :D
