hey guys, i read somewhere a good while ago (couldn't find via search) that someone converted his front brakes on his GT to cobra/bullitt... he then took his old front set and moved it to the rear. so now his car effectivly had cobra front brakes and gt front brakes on the rears. two questions i have:

1 - is this a good solution or am i really going off the deep end and remembering something incorrectly

2 - is this just a bolt up and go, or are there brackets needed/fabrication/whatever. reason i was thinking is that my rears always drag (getting annoying) and figured with the upgraded front the upgraded rear would lengthen life..... and stopping force.

thoughts?

some cars have them factory but they are the ones with alot of HP like porsche, MB, and high line cars that have like 6 piston up front and a 2 or 4 piston in the rear but honestly i think that just upgrading to a entire cobra or mach kit will do
