Moving worn front disks onto the rear...

My rear disks are shot. Well shot.

My fronts disks are in reasonably good nick. They are EBC turbo disks. The plan is to put the fronts on to the rear and fit new disks on the front.

I have ordered a set of ali-bell disks from elise parts for the front end, with the group buy pagids on the way it wont be long before the car is back on the road..

Shouldn't be a problem, but might be worth getting them skimmed to true them up or they will eat pads until they fit properly...

Just for sheer lasyness i would get a new set for the back as more then likely the buggered discs will eat the pads and then you will need new pads and new discs so save some cash and put new discs on.

Also your rear brakes won't work a crap until the pads have bedded themselves into the fecked discs
