Default rs2k brake upgrades??

my mate has a mk5/6 4x4 rs2k and hes wanting to know what he will need to do to get either 2wd 4 pots and disc setup on his car, or will it be easier to fit 4x4 cosworth setup?

any help much appreciated

4x4 cossy set up fots fine

st170 set up is a direct fit

or

MK1 focus RS brembo brakes (same an fiat 20v turbo) fit with mk1 rs discs and a bracket is sold on ebay.
