You need to use the RS2000 rear beam complete with discs and calipers, also the handbrake cable aswell. Pretty easy swop so am told but u wont get a RS2000 rear beam for much less than £125.

This is something I looked into but not for me just yet matey

iv got willwood 4 pot calipers so the car dives when i brake an im getting brake fade slowing from over 100mph so i need to get the back brakes working a bit more

might wanna work ur suspension a bit to prevent the diving. Its really entertaining watchin dazza drive with his boat like handling and all that power/braking power. Its like a see-saw lol. As for the rear discs, the only car to have em as standard was the RS2000. U will need a rs200 2wd rear beam/hubs and then u slap ur desired disc/caliper combo onto that.Also need to do the handbrake cable and maybe the front/rear brake pressure distribution thing may need adjusting
