You can, however, buy upgraded pads from your friendly neighborhood Go-Fast Lab that'll make you think you had a bbk! 
(They can help you out with a Stoptech bbk for your fronts while they're at it.

The main feature of big brake kits is heat capacity. Unless you are over heating your rear brakes, rear bbk's aren't necessary.
For more information please see this Link about rear big brake kits.

An S2000 was brought in to see if a rear kit is possible.
The stock rear brake caliper on the S2k is a combination of a hydraulic and mechanical braking mechanism, normal braking and parking brake. In order for StopTech to make a 4 wheel street legal kit, it needs to have a parking brake. Our 2 piston rear caliper is hydraulicly actuated. A separate caliper is necessary for the parking brake. Unfortunately, the rear does not allow a place for a parking brake caliper to bolt on safely. If 4 wheel kit is produced, it would be produced without the rear parking brake and that would make it a race only kit.
