umm I don't think so...
I have a set of ae92 rear discs and calipers for my ae82 sitting in the garage and thats because the bolt points are about 5mm to long to fit on to my ae82 mounting bracket.. so my guess is it won't work the other way around either.
I will find out next week how much it will be for me to get a set of custom brackets made up by my local machining shop

Andrew,
I watched dudes at BD4's do a disc conversion on a CS AE92 and it was a bolt on job... Looked quite easy actually...

If you are swaping AE92 drums out, and AE92 disks in, it is just a matter of bolting things in place. You may need to get new brake hoses tho. You will need not just the disk and caliper, but the hub carrier as well! The reason for this is the caliper bolts direct to the hub carrier unlike the AE82 which has a seperate backing plate that is changed for drum or disk.
Dont forget to get the hand brake cable for the disk setup!!!!
If you have all the parts ahead of time, you should be able to do the swap in an afternoon.

Can use AE92 disc brake flexible hoses. Connect from caliper straight to body and don't need to use the bracket on the strut.
