Ok, i recently put the 300zx upgrade kit on my car and i wanted to see if i could put my old stock front 2 piston calipers on the rear of the car, instead of having the screw type back their, and that way i can put on the thicker ventilated rotors on the back also... is this alright to do, is it even possible? would this be a benifit or not?

Thanks in advance for any info!

You cannot put the front brakes in the rear for a couple of reasons.  One, the bolt pattern is different.. it will not line up.  Two, you will have no ebrake even if the bolts did line up.
