4.6is to 3.0 brakes

Hello. Just curious is this a clean swap? Can I put 4.6is calipers & rotors on a stock 3.0 sport? Assuming 4.6is wheels as well for clearance.

you may need a bigger master cylinder; check on realoem.com to see if the cylinder is the same on both cars

I think the 4.6is brakes calipers and rotors are bigger than your 3.0, so you mite need bigger brackets.
