Putting front brakes in the rear?

could you put the brakes from the front on the rear w/o multiple thousands of dollars? I'm asking because I have 13" rotors calipers etc. on the front and stockers on the back. And they just look so puny also i woudln't mind stopping even faster

I can't say anything on if they would fit or not, But I do know you would lose your e-brake if you were able to get the front calipers back there.

It would take more than the fitament to make this work. Even if you got them back there, and ASSUMING the stock system pressurizes the front caplipers correctly when on the rear break system. You would end up with serious oversteer situation in a hury.
