I didn't change any part of the hydraulic system when I changed from drum to disc and my car seems to stop real good. I'm not sure if it would help or not.

yes change the proportioning valve and the master cylinder. They are different for drum and disc setups.

im not sure what exactly is different, but ever auto parts store has a different master cylinder for drums and discs, and mazda has a different part number for the oem drum and disc master cylinder.

Its your brakes man, dont cheap out on it. I allready lost a 7 because of that.
