The ROTORS are used on the back, calipers stay stock. If have a set of CSVT rotors you'll be set to do the backs.

The hardware is designed to use the stock caliper, bracketry and pads on the front (including lines but SS lines rec.) and with some modification install a 300mm FSVT rotor.
Then the former front rotor can be turned and with a little modification to it and the rear caliper bracket, and you will use the former fornt rotor on the rear.
The change in rotor size on both the front and the rear at the same time essentially keeps the same percentage of brake bias front to rear as was designed stock, only with a lot more stopping power and fade resistance.
It also saves you the money of having to buy rear rotors.

So you buy FSVT front rotors, the hardware kits, new pads if necessary, SS lines if you want, then that is it.
However, the conversion requires some tools and mechanical skills.
