Installing fronts brembo calipers to the rear

Does anybody know if i can swap front Bremobo calipers to the the rear .
The rear currently has Brembo calipers.But it is the smaller 4 piston calipers .

I have an extra set of Brembo calipers , and i was wondering if i can do the rear swap without too much modifications !

It is possible to fabricate brackets and get them mounted. The problem is brake bias and ABS calibration. It would require a brake bias adjustment in the ABS calibration which we do not have access to. There would probably be hydraulic issues as well.

Long story short, find a new home for the orphaned 6 pot front calipers.

Great info JusticePete , i guess i will be leaving them the way they are .
I was going to put them on it it was a direct bolt on.
But after what you have just told me , i will be keeping them they way they are .

Yeah , i would probably just end up selling the extra set of calipers i have .

Thanks again for the info !
