Hello Jason, Thanks for your response. In reply, I already have a Caterham vented disc conversion for the front brakes - and that is combined with a Tilton pedal box, with balance bar. So, I have all manner of possibilities regarding master cylinder sizes/ratios and setup of the front/rear bias. Before I finalise the spec of the car, a disc setup at the rear would be great. My car has all the mods for a lightweight GT6 lower wishbone system, CV driveshafts etc., so my vertical links are of that type. This is why I was so intrigued by the article that Garth posted, at the top of this thread. Those pictures show a GT6 rear system. Is your own conversion based on GT6 rear uprights? My reason for asking all these favours is that I am running out of time and effort to try and develop all the bracketry myself - and it will speed things up if I can get hold of ideas/drawings/patterns from others. My car already has a Toyota 16V engine/gearbox (my own work), competition Quaife ATB diff, rollcage and much more. I just need help in easy ideas for the rear disc conversion. Phew! Chris

Trying to keep this thread alive, as I think it would be useful to so many who wish to upgrade to a rear disc setup. Can anyone confirm that the rear calipers used in the photos are indeed MGF/MGTF? If so, which year and specific model? Also, are the discs in the photos also MGF? I can design my own steel bracketry, along the lines of the images, but getting the right stuff from the MG parts bin would help.

I would also be very keen to find out more regarding the conversion/photos at the top of this thread. Does anyone out there know who did this? Chris
