Clio 1.8 16v brake conversion

[Hutchy]

i have a p reg 1.2 clio and have gone threw 2 sets of disks since july due to doing a lot of miles on twisty roads. i have been told it is because the disks are solid and they get to hot. anyway, i have being wanting to do a conversion off a 1.8 16v for ages now and feel this is the time to do it. i was just wondering if anyone had done it and could give me any advice. i know i will need calipers, carriers, disks, pads and all the bolts but do i also need the hubs aswell?

Ive got a 1.28v aswell, was it hard to do?

Can you get grooved discs to just replace the standard discs?
