I think it will, since one way people have supposedly "upgraded" to rear 
disc brakes on coupes gt is to use the fwd 80 rear axle et cetera.

Which brings up a bit of a spaniard in the works for this "budget" 
project - the axle (etc.) is probably going to bolt up just fine, but 
you will have to do your homework (and probably buy new parts) to set up 
the disc brakes (versus the drums on your car).
