While I'm still rather new to Z's, just bought my first one a month ago (an '11 Nismo), I'm almost positive that doing what you're suggesting would not be an easy bolt on type mod. It would more than likely require some custom fab work for caliper brackets etc. More importantly car stability under braking will most certainly be affected in a negative way unless you have a way of adjusting the brake bias. Normally, most cars use much more front brake than rear brake, hence why the front calipers and rotors are larger than the rear.
