Well I hope you're patient and have perseverance because ever since Ford stopped making the rear disc caliper support brackets all the rear-conversion kits Ford once sold are no longer available - and based on previous posts like yours it appears that all our regular sources are now out of stock.
You've basically got two options - rear SVT brakes and the rear discs from the 2005-2007 ST model - so start checking out the for sale ads on all the Focus sites, kijiji, and call all the wrecking yards in your area.
2008 Fusion SEL MTX - DD1 * 2009 Fusion SEL - DD2 * 2007 Focus ZXW - R*I*P * 2004 Focus ZTW CD Silver - sold * 2004 Focus ZTW Black - sold * 2003 Focus ZTW Black - sold * 2001 Focus ZTW Gold - sold * 2000 Focus SE Wagon (ZTW option) - Black - sold * 2000 Focus SE Wagon (ZTW option) - Gold R*I*P
2003 Focus ZX5 infra-red Track Rat - R*I*P
2003 ZX5 CD Silver Track Rat - retired, but still in the driveway
New track rat: 2000 ZX3, Atlantic Blue * JRSC with lots more to come
* New Zetec crate motor - NFG - thanks Topspeed *

Curious on what parts I need? If you could list them that be great. I wasn't exactly looking for a kit other wise I'd go to hell and back for the ford racing rally kit, i was looking for svt or the st rear brake set up Haha

Ford Racing was the source of both the rally kit (from the ST) and the SVT kit - but they stopped offering them when Ford corporate stopped making the rear caliper bracket.
So the only part you need to focus on right now (no pun intended) is the rear disc caliper bracket that Ford no longer makes. Everything else is readily available, so there's no point in buying anything until you have the brackets.
