Default Ap 330mm Rear Brake Set Up

Am thinking of upgrading my rear breakes. I currently have a Hi spec conversion using 310 rotoes and standard calipers.

Is it worth the money and hassel? It would be the hydraulic handbrake conversion, Which im not 100% sure how it works?

Does anyone have pics of how it would look inside the car? I belive martin puts the hydraulic handbrake inside the centre console?

Any info and pics would be much appriciated

Thanks

mooky, yes it can go in the centre console, or you can retain the original caliper for handbrake duties and have another additional caliper for on road breaking

why?
WHY?

sense of such an rear brake?

you dont have a rear engined porsche, where all the big weight is on the rear axle, I m driving on the ring with stock rear setup, and it was fine till now.... won't change it for this year also.... you can just give very low press on the rears if you have such a big setup and then the pads won't get temp (maybe joke )
