I would do all four. especially if your gonna track the car. You will be putting extra strain on your fronts if you dont match the rear. Plus I would imagine a smaller back brake will cause more weight forced to the front when breaking into a turn and will slow you down. (just thinking of the physics of it)

Very true. It just cost twice as much to do front and rear, but I guess I have to pay to play.
