      The rear offset disc made of lightweight aluminium alloy. 10mm thick. Original silver in color. This is after sprayed black together with rear brake hub and disc center.



      Rear brake without the wheel blocking the view.

      More images.

      6 pot caliper made up of light weight titanium alloy. Even the brake pistons are lightweight.



      550 degrees celcius brake pads.





      2 piece brake rotor. There are 4 X 100 pcd model available, but I didnt bother to wait for the stocks to arrive, so I just drilled 4 X 100 holes and its ready to be used immediately.

      im going to be doing this to my car. do you have the measurements from the spindle bolts (as in where you made the bracket adapter) it would save me form making my car undriveable to get them. and i and to see if my idea will work (non ABS cars only) but it would be big disc brakes all around for @ $800 (less if you can get better sources of the calipers etc)

      I didnt take any measurements. Sorry mate. But my set still have ABS unaffected. I did not forgo the ABS. I felt thats important, so I retained the ABS unaffected even after modification.

      It is interesting to me, what firm brake disks.
      And a principle of work of brake system after change, where the manual brake has got to?
      If it is possible a technical language because there are difficulties of translation.
      the original poster cut his drum to for a hub, and then made a spacer to how the spindle bolt up as an caliper carrier attachment.

      beyond that i am unsure of what brake components he used. or if there is a drum ebrake on the rotor or if the caliper has the ebrake.

      thats the brake line, it would go into the caliper (possibly need an adapter)

      So is it $800 for just the rear disk brake conversion? or does it also include big front brakes?
