Don't think it can be done mate. Better off with 2pot rears from a bugeye onwards or brembo rears, if you're putting Brembo's on the front.

Martin you can fit the rear new-age 2pots but do not try and use your 4pots off the front..........as always call in for the job to be sussed

There are a few rear 4 pot kits available , even plastic caliper covers on Ebayto make it look as though you have rear 4 pots

The front 4 pot will not fit or work on the rears , I have tried it

Sorry to butt in this convo but I was wondering if the front 2 pots can be fitted to the rear if I was to get a front 4 pot upgrade?
