Mark- Go to post #2 on this thread and click on the link I attached there. It has all the answers you're looking for. FYI: Don't use the 283mm Mini rotors mentioned in your attached link- use the 280mm Mini rotors from a non-turbo Mini as mentioned in my link.

what are the available options for a JDM GE6. The stock rotor size is 232mm. Thinking of upgrading the brake hoses, rotors, calipers and pads. The rear comes with rear drum. Wonder what can be done to covert it to disc?

Sorry to hijack this thread. My question is also about Brake Upgrade. Planning to change my rear drums to discs. In EG/EK Civics before we also swap proportioning valves. I guess i dont need to do this anymore because of ABS. Correct me if im wrong?

Not necessary to swap proportioning valves... But it helps.
