Can 312 calipers and discs fit on rear

[BSboy]

Hi I’ve bought brembo 323mm calipers and disc to put on the front of my 2001 s3. I was wondering if I could put my old front calipers and disc on the rear and what would I need to get. Thanks I would much appreciate any advice

They wouldn’t fit mate, you can get a 300mm disk upgrade for the rear which I believe is from the B5 S4 re drilled to 5x100 and needs spacers and handbrake cable modification if you were that way inclined but it’s not really necessary for the amount of work the rear brakes do imho
