There are plenty of easy conversions you can do with Rx7 or other calipers and discs to suit. This does involve a little work though.

AE86 front brakes would be the simple answer but then you have to find some!

Yep, i have ae86 discs on mine and run standard toyota pads. They have never overheated and feel good at the track. You could also fit an ae86 axel housing with discs on the rear, but would be hard to find one.

do you have the ae86 struts in your ke70 or are the discs compadible with the ke70 stub axle?

ae85 front brakes are same as ke70; its gonna be too expensive to swap the rear to discs, just put new brake shoes in and adjust them right up.
ask ae25, he knows everything.
the ae86 discs will fit on the stub axles; im not sure if the calipers will bolt on though... i think they should because from memory (dont quote me here) but ae85 uses same shocks as ke70, and ae85/6 brakes should be interchangeable so you should be able to fit ae86 brakes to ke70 shocks..confused? i am
