    Look at the post right above yours. You don't need to transplant a GTZ rear to get rear discs. There's a parts list included to do the drum to disc conversion.
    Chip

    2000 Basalt Black Metallic GTZ
    (Paint Code: Porsche LC9Z)

    Genuine experience carries a lot more credibility than the ability to answer a question.

    but, if you can get a good deal on the gtz rear end, you might want to consider getting it and just moving the parts from the gtz to your rear end.

    with that said, converting to a rear disc setup is mainly for asthetics since the rear brakes only do a fraction of the total braking for your car, you're not gonna see a big big difference in braking capabilities. the drum setup is actually a pretty good setup, its just the fact that its all enclosed that makes it not as good as discs.

    Ditto although it does look waay better with a disc than that ugly old drum.

    Not how fast your car goes but how good u drive going fast.
