I just upgraded my front brakes to 13" Cobra units earlier this week and it's a fantastic mod. Parts required are:

13" Cobra front rotors
Cobra PBR calipers
Caliper brackets
Caliper bracket to spindle bolts
Brake hoses
Brake hose to caliper banjo bolts
17" wheels to provide the required clearance
Brake fluid

This is what I picked up from a junkyard '98 Cobra for just $163:

Yes indeed, and a brain too. A Haynes or Chilton manual wouldn't hurt either if you've never done a brake job before.
