I believe some people have fitted them to a 1000, but 1000s are very different to 1200s.

I am not saying its impossible, it might work, it would be worth taking the discs you have off and trying them on for size, it should become apparant pretty quickly what will need to be done.

Someone wrote recently that 1600 hubs, discs and calipers fit on the coupe strut which would be a small upgrade with not too much extra weight, im not 100% sure on the details if the hub is needed or not and whether offset is changed.

Hey Nuts,for what you are doing Motorsport wise,i would be prone to leaving the front brakes alone.They are not that bad if in good condition,i would however sneak a brake bias cockpit unit in somewhere.That way you can control pressure to the rears.But they are illegal for road use i believe in most states,so if you go down that track be smart and think consoles

good advise must give it a shot before stuffing with them.a few coupes in the club run the rear bias,and we are all on club plates so that could be interesting if jolly oppers decide to have a sticky!
