brake question

Hi all, this may of been asked before but is it worth having std four pots up front and 4x4 vented discs and calipers at the rear? Thanks.

Only in terms of heat disipation, as the solid discs will get very hot if driven enthusiastically, remember if you do this you will also need the calipers as well.

On track my 2WD rear set-up caused the pads to disintegrate very very quickly. Changing to vented rear and 4WD calipers made the pads last much longer on track.
