Rev 3 front caliper and rotor on the rear?

Has anyone tried or know if the original REV3 front brake set-up can work on the rear? 
It's actually not needed but was just curious as I now have these laying around after my front upgrade to 6 pot. NO ABS in use!
 
Thanks

    Far better brake setups/calipers to use if you do not care for the internal handbrake calipers factory fitted. 
     
    A lot of work for a flawed brake setup in my opinion.
     
    Sell what you have and fit something that will complement what you have on the front, not detract.

    didn't think the front SW20 brakes would work with a handbrake on the rear anyway. 
    yes best to put them on ebay or something, the later front brakes are still sought after.
