Since the front brakes do most of the work of braking, switching to
rear discs won't really yield that much improvement.  In fact, you'll
need to adjust the brake proportioning valve so that the rears don't
lock up first under panic stop conditions.

I don't know the model year of your coupe, I assume it's post-1985,
which ought to have 10.1" brake rotors.  In this case there is no
benefit in changing to the 80/90 fwd brakes.  If your rotors are 9.4"
then you could bolt-on the later rotors and calipers.  No need to
switch the struts.

No, type 89 lights won't fit your coupe.  Euro H4/H1 lights are the best
upgrade.  There are also Euro H4-only lights that cost somewhat less.
Another option is to go with the 1984 or earlier front grill and quad lamp
bezels and frames, then install "standard" E-code rectangular lamps.
No matter which route you go, a relay wiring harness is a must.
