    It doesn't make a difference from coupe to sedan. Just figure out what rear brake setup you have and go from there.

    None of you guys with rear disk ever swapped out the master and proportioning valve when going with the 5 lug swap?

    Finally a more simple and very confidence boosting thread for us EX guys that want to do the swap many thanks to all of you who took the time to get all the info together. I have one question about the caliper mounting brackets do we use the v6 or i4. I didnt seem to see it or might have missed it. Thanks once again.:High 5::High :party36::party36::jealousbow:

    You will need V6 caliper and bracket for the front and in the rear if you disc brake you can use you same caliper and bracket that is already there.
