Evo Brembo's on Lancer?

Does anyone know if it is possible to rework the brakes and mounting to use the EVO Brembo's on a Lancer OZ??
If so, does anyone know what all it will entail?

way more money than it is worth. if you are concerned about big brakes get yourself a set of Wilwood's and a RPW rear disc conversion. as far as i know the evo VIII brembo's will not fit without serious modifications.

Wilwood Big Brake Kit

RPW Brake Upgrades


those will get you started if you are truly interested in big brakes and rear disc conversions.

Too much work; just get the Wilwood large disk upgrade for $550-600.

You have to change to 5 lugs so there is some serious work involved. Get the Wilwood front set up and do the RPW rear conversion. My old OZ had the and it stopped on a dime.I loved it. Doing the Evo conversion is a lot more money than it's worth.

please look at the links in my first post. the Wilwood's run around $649 and i'm unsure of the rear conversion. you can download a PDF file with all the RPW prices/conversions on their site. it's is a bit pricey though.
