Default AP Racing now doing rear brake upgrade

Quick headsup, AP Racing are now offering a rear brake upgrade. Details are here. Follow Brake Kit Selection - Subrau - Rears.....

It's a 4 pot caliper and two different size discs, one for 98 to 01 (310mm) and another for 01 on (335mm). Anyone know what the standard disc size is for these ages? I presume the difference is solely down to the wheel sizes that were available for these age cars, ie some 98 to 01 cars come with 16" but all post 01 cars are 17" or similar? Anyone know if the hubs, ie caliper flanges, are constant from 98 to 06 or if they changed at 01?

Wonder how they do the handbrake bit? Must be a new iron disc with the handbrake drum incorporated as the standard one presumably?

The rear kit contains and integral parking drum as part of the rear disc. I have already contacted AP regarding this kit. I am in work at the moment but when I get home this afternoon I will copy and paste the email I had from them which gives all relevant part numbers, details etc etc regarding the AP 6 pot front kit and AP 4 pot rear kit.
