FAST-XR EVIL T Member 259 Member For: 16y 4m 7d Gender: Male Location: Liverpool NSW Posted 30/05/09 02:40 AM Share Posted 30/05/09 02:40 AM has anyone tried this? I know it wouldnt make a huge difference as the fronts takes more load than the rears, but it if it was an easy changeover it would be a worthwhile mod as you can pick up a 2nd hand pair of std front brakes including rotors for 200-300 dollars... not to mention it would look heaps better too...

You would need to fabricate a bracket and change handbrake cable connection. I have this on my Cobra, and it works well.
