You’ve got a few options. Most C4 guys go with a C5/C6 rear brake conversion using adapter brackets—good upgrade and parts are easy to get. Wilwood also makes a full rear big-brake kit if you want something more performance-focused. Just double-check wheel clearance and parking-brake compatibility before you buy.

Best place to find the different ones is Ebay.
The seller is actually a Forum member.
