JUst find the parts off an ES model from the same year, and get the front brakes while you're at it.

why the fronts too???

They should be bigger.
There is no need for a "big brake " kit on the street except for bling factor.

Hello,

for brake kit except big brake kits.

for 3gen you can import from e-spec protege this.

following parts needed to perform the swap
properly (this assumes you have performed the front brake upgrade):
BJ4T-43-40Z master cylinder
BL8M-43-800 brake booster
BJ3K-26-261 right side dust shield (must be imported)
BJ3K-26-271 left side dust shield (must be imported)
9975-61-016 3 per side (dust shield mounting bolts)
BKZT-26-98Z right side caliper (includes mounting bracket, caliper bolts)
BKZT-26-99Z left side caliper (includes mounting bracket, caliper bolts)
9975-61-035 caliper mounting bracket bolts 2 per side
BK1T-43-980 brake line (same for both sides)
B001-43-694A banjo bolt
9956-21-000 banjo bolt washers, 2 per side
GE7C-44-410D right side ebrake cable
GE7C-44-420D left side ebrake cable
GA2B-44-375A ebrake cable clips
B26Y-26-251 rear brake rotor (must be imported)
GJ21-33-042B wheel hub nut (can be reused from drum brake hub)
BKYT-26-43Z pad set
The following are for non-ABS equiped cars:
BK1T-26-111 rear right spindle hub/knuckle (must be imported)
BK1T-26-115 rear left spindle hub/knuckle (must be imported)
B455-26-071 hub cap (can be reused from drum brake hub)
The following are for ABS equiped cars (wheel sensors to be reused):
BJ3K-26-111 rear right spindle hub/knuckle (must be imported)
BJ3K-26-115 rear left spindle hub/knuckle (must be imported)
B603-26-15XB wheel hub (can be reused from drum brake hub)
I do not recommend performing this swap with all new parts as it will be
extremely expensive. Pull most of those parts off of a wrecked 4 wheel
disc brake Protegé and get the rest that aren't available


or you can look i can fit the rear disk from 2gen with rear disk or from miata or old 626-MX6
