Honda - just about any honda that has rear disks run the same as these, which are off a CRX.

Have a look at corolla Seca as well , I have a set of rear callipers for future use on the fang courtesy of Tom (minivanman) from a late 80's early 90's Seca and they are much more compact then what Simon's shown photo's of , the handbrake mechanism is very neat and is only a small lever coming out of the calliper . I'll get around to posting some pics over the next few days . Still think it's overkill in a mini but I like the idea of rear disc's in the fang as it's mid engined and the mini engine makes up just over half the total weight ....

interesting Ian - please put up a pic... sitting on an S rotor would be nice ;)

is the handbrake a cam action, or a self adjusting rod behind the piston like those ones?
