B13 Rear Disc

I have been around the internet and back trying to find the most cost efficient way of converting the drum brakes on my 1993 B13 to discs. I've seen those conversion kits that cost an arm & leg but what are the pros and cons of this conversion kit? On the other hand there is the option of getting the whole rear beam. However its a lot more bulky than the conversion kit and shipping would be a bit more difficult. What do you think is the best option? If you're leading towards the conversion, what's the best brand you recommend and the cost. If you're leading towards the rear beam, where can I find one and the cost.

I was lucky enough to find a Pulsar (RNN14) shell; my intention is to use the interior and suspension from the Pulsar on/in my B13 project. My problem right now is; the front right hub, rotor and caliper are damaged (AD22VF). It would be nice if I got get the set (hub, rotor & caliper) for the front. If anyone can help me out please let me know urgently.

Driver's side wheel bearing had to be changed:

Haven't been on here in a while and progress with the project has been a bit slow. I used the complete suspension (front & rear) from the Pulsar on the B13 however I need to do a little fabrication with the arm that runs horizontal from the chassis to the bottom of the hub.
What I need now is a pair of RNN14 (Pulsar) front brake rotors. They must not have any machining (shaved) or damage done to them.
