Q: Is disc brakes on the rear of a Mirage possible?
A: Yes.
Q: Has anyone ever put disc brakes on the rear of a Mirage?
A: Yes. It was done using custom-fabricated brackets by a auto shop in one of the Southeast Asian markets this car targets. It's actually fairly easy to do.
Q: Is the information available here?
A: No.
Q: Why not?
A: People in that part of the world do not have English as their first language, nor do they even use a variant of the Roman alphabet, so they very rarely find or frequent English-speaking forums like this one.
Q: Would the disc brakes on the rear of the car improve performance?
A: On an proportioning valve car, maybe. If the valve was switched out to an appropriate one, and you had super sticky tires, and had also been autocrossing the car for the past 30 minutes s.t. the stock brakes would be overheating. On an ABS car, no, it would make performance worse, no matter what.
Q: Would the swap be worth it for anything other than looks?
A: No.
