Be careful Andy as you may overbreak the rear with 4 pots at both ends. you will need a bias valve too i would think..

Get him a set of 300 mm belled 4x4 rear disk instead with brackets for some standard 4x4 rear calipers, would be a much better option and still look v cool

If you have only 330s on the front with four pots, then the 315x28s required to fit the four pots on the back would be HUGE over-kill and require a bias valve to reduce the breaking to the rear (especially if it is a 2wd car).

The 300mm discs using a 4x4 calliper will be more than up to the job. This is what they would look like on the car .
