Really stegomon? As long as you've been around here and you didn't know about that? Or are you referring to the fact that those pictures are the same ones used on our tech page?

Rear disc brakes can be nice but there are draw backs.
If you have an automatic most don't use the E-brake, if you have a manual most do.
E-brake on rear discs are.......well marginal if they exist at all, lol

Working E-brake can be handy for more than just parking on a hill.

Last time I looked for a disc convertion was this page and that was a loooong time ago
