Check in the Tech Articles section of this very website; you'll find the modification explained. Note that this is only for the front brakes.
There really aren't any other ready-made "kits" available for the 914's brakes. You can swap over to 911 brakes, but that requires replacing the suspension struts at a minimum, and then you have to deal with converting the rears to five-lug. And you still have stock rear brakes.
Which aren't bad, IMHO--the rears don't contribute a whole lot to braking anyway. The fronts do most of the work.
There are billet hubs you can get that let you bolt up ventilated rotors and 911 "M" calipers (I think you need an adaptor bracket) and still use four-bolt wheels. I'm not sure how available they are yet; they just came out recently and may still be in a testing stage...
