Hi, please may you tell me if Gold Brembos from a 2005 Sti will fit onto a mate's Ver3 STi which still has its original Subaru 4 Pots on. Thanks Peter

Yes they will Peter but you will need alloys that clear the calipers, as I run them on my sti 3.

Nope, think you would struggle even if you used a 10mm spacer and longer wheels studs. easiest option would be getting a set of newage sti wheels.

Will the New age STi brakes fit on a 2005 WRX, is it a direct swap? Or do you need hubs etc etc..?

On a newage wrx everything is bolt on, no need for the hubs. Even the rear ones go straight on, no need for any brackets or hand brake shoes.

As mentioned it all bolts on. Only problem will be the discs from an 05 sTI have 114.something PCD and all other Scoobies are 110 PCD. So don't use the discs or just get the holes re-drilled.

Any STi prior to 2005, will have the correct pcd of 5*100 therefore bolting straight on.
