Rear Disc Brake Conversion Bracket

Anyone selling a scarebird kit or other rear drum to disk conversion brackets?

Contact Bryan at Fastbrakes.com. His original kit was designed for the 1st Gen Fits. He thought his original kit would also work on Gen 2 Fits, but they didn't. His original Gen 1 adaptor brackets didn't center the rotors correctly on a Gen 2. He now uses machined Civic EP3 brackets, that center the rotors better. His updated kit also uses adaptors for the stock Gen 2 emergency brake cables, where you don't have to replace the cables. The kit does use re-drilled rotors that he provides for proper alignment.

I've run the updated rear Fastbrakes kit on my '13 sport for 2- 3 years and in my opinion it works great.

I appreciate the info. I have seen the fastbrakes kit but all I need is the adapter brackets. I have everything else I will need.
