I think It will be possible to put the front brakes on the rear.

Brembos, AP, tarox, etc... make callipers, then there are brackets to adapt each model to your car's original holes.

If you can find, or can have made, those brackets for the rear, you can buy 2 new discs and callipers and then fit them to the back wheels.

Overfinch has got the 6 pot front, 4 pot rear which is basically brembos with overfinch's brackets and paintjob.

Thank u for the information.
I will go to a garage and ask them. LR will not do that because I try it once with my RRS.

There's one minor issue w/putting front rotors on the rear (aside from offset, diameter, thickness), that is the parking brake drum. Wouldn't have been an issue in the P38, is in the LM.
Building a set of brakes is more than just finding parts that would physically fit, too. Brake bias is predominantly determined by the proportion of the front piston volumes vs. the rear. That means you either have to fit the present rear calipers or appropriately match a set - nothing for shade tree tuners... Razz
Aside from all of that, you are looking at considerable expense for... bigger looking brakes that don't actually perform better?

Yes. Wink I mean the Brembo brakes are very good. I don't need more brakepower. I only need it because it looks better. My opinion. Wink
